Re^3: threads question

Yes. The namespaces are confusing.

Unfortunately, several of the Thread::* modules intended for use with 5005threads are non-useful with ithreads, but will likely never be removed or upgraded.

The good news is that liz generated several new modules that are. Thread::Use is small and rather uninspiringly named, but extremely Use-ful.

Thread::Use may be small, but it does much more than just require, or even require + import. Traversing the `@ISA` tree may not be horribly complex, but it's complex enough that it is easy to get it wrong. Examine what is said, not who speaks.
