Yep.

But, I've got 2 questions, kindly Rob.

  1. Where are the thread bugs? In the Perl version or the module version or did you just mean in general?
  2. What CPAN module to update the threads? I'll search, but still, I don't want to install a lot of unneeded modules before finding the one you were referring to. If you meant the Perl version in general, that can't happen.

Thanks!

    I meant just in general. There's a comment to this effect in diag.t.
    And I was thinking of updating the threads module from CPAN -http://search.cpan.org/~jdhedden/threads-1.22/ - assuming you can't update perl itself. I don't know if it will solve anything, but it's the first thing I'd try given the aforementioned comments in diag.t (which you'll find near the beginning of that file).

    Cheers,
    Rob
