in reply to "double free or corruption" in Perl 5.16.0 but not in 5.14.2

Crashes Strawberry Perl 5.16.1 on Windows 7 x64 also. Note I changed the $path variable for Windows:

my $path = "c:/users/VinsWorldcom/tmp/x";

[download]

And here goes:

VinsWorldcom@C:\Users\VinsWorldcom\tmp> perl -v

This is perl 5, version 16, subversion 1 (v5.16.1) built for MSWin32-x
+64-multi-thread

[...]

VinsWorldcom@C:\Users\VinsWorldcom\tmp> test
market detail: 305
market price: 206

At that point a pop-up window says "perl.exe has stopped working".
