Well.. I can reproduce the problem. w/ perl 5.8.5, Thread::Pool v0.32 and TT v2.14

#!/usr/local/bin/perl -w
use strict;

use CGI;
use Thread::Pool;
use Template;

my $q = new CGI;
print "Content-type: text/html\n\n";
my $file = 'template.html'; 
    
my $vars = {
       message  => "Hello World\n"
};

my $template = Template->new({
                             INCLUDE_PATH => './'
                             });

$template->process($file, $vars)
    || die "Template process failed: ", $template->error(), "\n";
__END__
Content-type: text/html
[download]

No error messages whatsoever.

Interestingly, replacing the template->process() call with

$template->process($file, $vars,'output.html')
[download]

gives the error message

Could not find file for 'output.html' at /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_per
+l/5.8.5/load.pm line 209.
[download]

(load.pm is loaded by Thread::Pool).

Maybe liz knows more.
