$ perl5.8.0 -le '$! = -1728; print $^E+0 for 0,1'
   -1728
   22

This appears to be fixed in perl5.8.1, in the RC3 version that ships with 
Panther:

   $ perl5.8.1 -le '$! = -1728; print $^E+0 for 0,1'
   -1728
   -1728

Bu in a perl 5.8.1 RC1 I built myself:

   $ perl5.8.1 -le '$! = -1728; print $^E+0 for 0,1'
   -1728
   22

And in a fresh build of perl 5.8.2:

   $ perl5.8.2 -le '$! = -1728; print $^E+0 for 0,1'
   -1728
   22

Is this a known issue?  Anyone know if it's been reported, or what the 
problem might be?
