Here's what the ActiveState documentation says about use Thread:
The Thread extension requires Perl to be built in a particular way to enable the older 5.005 threading model. ActivePerl is not built this way, which means this extension will not work under ActivePerl. If you wish to use the 5.005 threading model, you will need to compile Perl from the sources to enable this feature.
Sorry for the bad news!
