Saladino has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Hi, Can anybody confirm this?, just executing:
use threads; use Net::Gen;
It segfaults in 2 different installations of perl 5.8.8 in Debian. It is suposed to be thread-safe.
I discovered it trying to use Net::TCP::Server in a multithread context.
Update:
Changed Net::TCP for Net::Gen, Net::TCP uses that module
