in thread Win32::OLE->GetObject("winmgmts:") changes my locale

grep locale Win32-OLE-0.1709 doesn't show locale being set by default, maybe its an OLE issue (not a Win32::OLE specific)? You can test with vbs

    I'm only getting this behaviour with winmgmts, not with every Win32::OLE->GetObject call, so I'm not surprised there's nothing to find in the source for Win32::OLE. OTOH, I have no idea how OLE works, and I'm a bit surprised that any module can have such wide-reaching effects on perl.

    Anyway, thanks for introducing me the the cpan tools, I hadn't seen them before.
