in thread multiple values for one key in hash

huh. My understanding was always that an exists check was done in the background (reflecting my experience with the tied madness that is DBM::Deep), but I've never felt curious enough to explore more deeply.
My criteria for good software:
  1. Does it work?
  2. Can someone else come in, make a change, and be reasonably certain no bugs were introduced?
