I did say this before, but you weren't paying attention. Look at what you found. It's obvious that the perl.h API is not thread-safe. Nowhere does it actually state that it is thread-safe. If you want to use multiple perl objects, you are sadly reduced to these no-so-worthy function pulled straight from the man pages: 
             my_perl = perl_alloc();
             perl_construct(my_perl);
             perl_parse(my_perl, NULL, argc, argv, (char **)NULL);
             perl_run(my_perl);
             perl_destruct(my_perl);
             perl_free(my_perl);

You can parse any valid perl using this method. Look more at perlembed to see how the API abuses the assumption that there is only one interpreter.

Remember, Rule #1 of Threading reads: "A library is not thread-safe unless specifically described that it is." Neither EXTERN.h nor perl.h are thread-safe.
