Thanks. I just reported it with perlbug half an hour ago at https://rt.perl.org/rt3/Ticket/Display.html?id=114984. I'll try your patch.

Unfortunately, patch applied against 5.17.4 gave the following test errors. `../cpan/CGI/t/tmpdir.t (Wstat +: 0 Tests: 9 Failed: 0) TODO passed: 3-9 ../ext/File-Glob/t/basic.t (Wstat +: 768 Test s: 49 Failed: 3) Failed tests: 19, 21-22 Non-zero exit status: 3 Files=2336, Tests=548419, 725 wallclock secs (50.53 usr 6.81 sys + 40 +1.23 cusr 34.93 csys = 493.50 CPU) Result: FAIL` [download] Perhaps I applied it incorrectly - will check.

It's a bad patch. I'm not sure why I thought it passed with bleadperl (and I knew it didn't look right), but for whatever reason, it's a bad patch.	[reply]

I'm pretty sure the patch was applied correctly to 5.17.4. I went back to stock 5.17.4 and all tests pass. With the patch the tests above fail.	[reply]
