It's not very happy on a redhat 9 box:
perl readkeyTest.pl
Foo
Foo
Foo
Foo
Foo
Foo

Foo
Foo

Terminated

$ qqqqqqq

$ perl -v
This is perl, v5.8.0 built for i386-linux-thread-multi
(with 1 registered patch, see perl -V for more detail)

It DOES, however, work fine on a Redhat 7.x box with perl 5.6.1, with uname info:
