Incompatible Changes
    For threaded builds for modules calling certain re-entrant system calls,
    binary compatibility was accidentally lost between 5.8.0 and 5.8.1.
    Binary compatibility with 5.8.0 has been restored in 5.8.2, which
    necessitates breaking compatibility with 5.8.1. We see this as the
    lesser of two evils.

    This will only affect people who have a threaded perl 5.8.1, and
    compiled modules which use these calls, and now attempt to run the
    compiled modules with 5.8.2. The fix is to re-compile and re-install the
    modules using 5.8.2.
