I agree... though, as it looks, the problem has 'already' been fixed in the version that comes with 5.10.0.	[reply]

But how can I update IPC::Open3 on my perl 5.8.8? I don't like to install perl 5.10.0 on my production machines.	[reply]

It doesn't seem to be in a distribution separate from Perl, so you will have to download the source and copy it over the existing `Open3.pm` file (after making a backup of the old file). Hopefully you won't encounter other required prerequisites that your current Perl doesn't match (see the "backup" part in the sentence before this one). Alternatively you can hold out until Perl 5.8.9 gets released, which likely will include the latest IPC::Open3.	[reply] [d/l]
