Missing autoflushing may (as discussed else in this thread) explain why the "END DESTROY" line is not always printed. It doesn't explain the blow output of 2 different references being given to 2 calls to DESTROY in the same process though:

The actual Perl object is also slightly changed... in a way I don't find meaningful... but then... I don't know the perlguts that well. I would primarily suspect a memory corruption reason for trashing the data. But it would be strange if such a problem never gave other symptoms with Net::Server::Prefork.
