So is this actually a bug in Strawberry and Active State Perl, or is Cygwin just applying some magic here to make this work? Both AS Perl and Strawberry Perl use the MS C-runtime, which is where the internal locking is done. It's not an error, it's a design choice. Cygwin on the other hand implements a strictly POSIX-complient C-runtime which makes other choices. With the rise and rise of 'Social' network sites: 'Computers are making people easier to use everyday'
Examine what is said, not who speaks -- Silence betokens consent -- Love the truth but pardon error.
"Science is about questioning the status quo. Questioning authority".
In the absence of evidence, opinion is indistinguishable from prejudice.
