Confirmed on Debian Etch amd64 with a built-from-source perl 5.10.0:
rhesa@apollo64:~/devel/test/pm$ perl -s 669148 -S=1e6 -N=13104 | wc -l
Trying 13104 probes with perl 5.010000 at 669148 line 18.

And on a 32 bits build under CentOS 4.x:
[rhesa@mp-cent-07 tmp]$ /opt/perl5.10/bin/perl -s 669148 -S=1e6 -N=131
+04 | wc -l
