volks,


has anyone else bumped heads with the 5.8.1
perlio layer where the old school tie

chomp(my $line = <STDIN>);

now pops out if a sig handler is called
on a signal, such as SIG_CHLD???

I just did the upgrade and got bitten
with that silly demo code about doing
command line arguments. Since right
before the upgrade the code did what I
expected it to do under 5.6.1 and then
afterwards it was popping out of it and
whining about a chomp on an un-initialized
variable, yada-yada-yada...

So that command line demo code has come
around to be usefuler than merely the expected
intellectual amusement.
