Tim,
Not having a threaded version of perl handy right now (I am home, it is at work), I cannot test this right now. The changes I had made were only to change a few tests to 'cmp_ok' and add test names, which should not affect things. However in the last update (prior to this one), I did change the order in which things were loaded when I converted this to use 'skip_all'. I did not think this would affect things, but without a threaded perl handy and limited knowledge of the details of threaded perl I suppose I should not have assumed.
So I have returned the load order back to the way it was, however I have kept the 'skip_all' construct and some other changes which I believe (fingers crossed holding my lucky rabbits foot here) will be okay. But again, I am not experienced enough with threaded perl to say for sure, so if you, or someone else, could please test it out and let me know. If this one does not pass, then I will completely restore the file to its original state until I can get my hands on a threaded perl to test with, which should be on Monday.
Sorry about the issue.
Steve

Could you take a look at this problem with threaded perl:
t/10examp.............ok 165/252Invalid value for shared scalar at /usr/local/perl583-i/lib/5.8.3/Test/Builder.pm line 319.
WHOA! Somehow you got a different number of results than tests ran!
This should never happen! Please contact the author immediately!

t/10examp.............dubious
Test returned status 20 (wstat 5120, 0x1400)
DIED. FAILED tests 166-252
Failed 87/252 tests, 65.48% okay
I got this using
v5.8.3 built for i386-freebsd-thread-multi
I'm using Test::Builder 0.17, which seems to be from the latest full release
of Test::Simple. But there's also a development release that says
0.48_01 Mon Nov 11 02:36:43 EST 2002
Will that probably fix it?
To answer my own question: yes and no. t/10examp passes, but now t/05thrclone fails:
