One bad thing I did was comment out the bootstrap line in the Socket6.pm file (bootstrap Socket6 $VERSION;), that tends to cause the following loop to occur when trying to create the server. 

my($constname);
($constname = $AUTOLOAD) =~ s/.*:://;
my $val = constant($constname, @_ ? $_[0] : 0);

Which is the beginning of the AutoLoad function in Socket6.pm 

sub AUTOLOAD {
    my($constname);
    ($constname = $AUTOLOAD) =~ s/.*:://;
    my $val = constant($constname, @_ ? $_[0] : 0);
    if ($! != 0) {
    if ($! =~ /Invalid/) {
        $AutoLoader::AUTOLOAD = $AUTOLOAD;
        goto &AutoLoader::AUTOLOAD;
    }
    else {
        my ($pack,$file,$line) = caller;
        croak "Your vendor has not defined Socket macro $constname, us
+ed";
    }
    }
    eval "sub $AUTOLOAD { $val }";
    goto &$AUTOLOAD;
}

This also has the effect of taking memory away from the machine until it runs out, a good way to starve the machine if you need to do that I suppose. But definitely not what I would like to have happen.
