Hi--

I installed Perl 5.16 64-bit and XML-Twig 3.40 on my system and it seems that the code I had that was working, now does not.

Specifically, when I am doing 
my $twig = new XML::Twig;
$twig->parse('<objects />');
$root = $twig->root;

...loop...
my $object = new XML::Twig;
$object->parse('<object />');
$objRoot = $object->root;
...build object xml...
$objRoot->paste('last_child', $root);

[download]
What's happening is that the first paste to objects works, but all the subsequent pastes do not.

This works fine in 5.14 and if I revert back all is fine.

Has anyone run into this?

Thanks.
