in thread Abnormal exit with threads, LWP and the Perl Debugger

I have compiled perl-5.15.1 and tested with that. The bug is present. I also implemented your suggestion to add some code to catch the CLONE call.

Thanks for doing that.

This is possibly connected.

it looks like this is a genuine bug rather than a mistake on my part,

Agreed.

should this discussion be moved to a different part of the Monastery?

I don't think there is anywhere better.

Ignore this, I misread the above: The bottom line is probably that this is now fixed and is unlikely to be easily backported.

The start of some sanity?
