Storing a reference to a shared structure into a non-shared scalar isn't a good idea. Correct that and you get a clue as to the problem:

use threads;
use threads::shared;
use Clone;
use Data::Dumper;

my $x :shared = shared_clone({
    a => 'Foo',
    b => 'Bar'
});

my $z = Clone::clone($x);
print Dumper($z);

Basically, Clone has never been updated to work with shared data, which is rather more than normal tied data.

This all begs the question of why you want to clone a shared structure to a non-shared?

In the absence of evidence, opinion is indistinguishable from prejudice.
