(update: please note Already discussed)

ehm I think I saw this effect before, but can someone explain the values in @list?

  DB<126> \%count
 => { 3 => 1, 5 => 1, 10 => 3 }

  DB<127> @list= %rcount= reverse %count
 => (3, 10, 3, 10)

  DB<128> \%rcount 
 => { 1 => 3, 3 => 10 }

  DB<129> \@list
 => [3, 10, 3, 10]

to exclude problems with my repl 

lanx@nc10-ubuntu:~$ perl -MData::Dumper -e ' %h1=(3 => 1, 5 => 1, 10 =
+> 3 ); @l=%h2=reverse %h1; print Dumper \@l,\%h2'
$VAR1 = [
          3,
          '10',
          3,
          '10'
        ];
$VAR2 = {
          '1' => '3',
          '3' => '10'
        };

lanx@nc10-ubuntu:~$ perl -version

This is perl, v5.10.0 built for i486-linux-gnu-thread-multi

bug or undefined behavior? reproducible in which versions?

update
lanx@nc10-ubuntu:~$ perl -MData::Dumper -e ' %h1=(3 => 1, 5 => 1, 10 =
+> 3 ); %h4=%h3=%h2=reverse %h1; print Dumper \%h2,\%h3,\%h4'
$VAR1 = {
          '1' => '3',
          '3' => '10'
        };
$VAR2 = {
          '3' => '10'
        };
$VAR3 = {
          '3' => '10'
        };
