Yeah, thanks for that. I would really have preferred to get the output, but I spose I'll have to live without it.

I entered the problem on ActiveStates bug reporting system so they're aware of the problem (after reading up on it a bit I don't think it's a job for the perlbug@perl.org guys).

Oh yeah, I tested it on AIX as well and it worked fine. I think I heard somewhere that Microsoft improved the threading model in Windows XP, so maybe whoever ported Perl to Windows took advantage of the new functionality and forgot to test it on the older systems...
