Re^3: Strange behavior with List::Util qw{first} on perl >= 5.20

[ikegami]

There's something fishy about $_. It's a TEMP with REFCNT=1. I believe that means it's a mortal. If so, that means noone claims a reference to $_, but first still uses it after the callback returns. This points to a bug in List::Util.

That said, the inplace lc($_)^[1] should probably only happen in void context.
