in reply to Embedded Perl, LC_NUMERIC and the $ variable.

I believe you will find this to be fixed in 5.6.0 and onward. It was most certainly a bug. I am fairly certain that it was change #3542 that fixed this, but I'm unable to put my hands on the patch. Read here about the change if you're interested.

Sorry for not having noticed this node earlier; I only just found it because of your other excellent question. Keep up the good work.
