Oh dear.  I developed it under Perl5.8.  Did POE change in some
breaking way?

the issue here is more likely to be the threading/multiplicity support there. poe and 5.8.0-thread don't get along very well. it is my understanding that these issues are fixed in blead-perl but until 5.8.1 things are still broken for threaded 5.8.0.

It sounds like this is a known problem...in case it's not, specifically
when running the code interactively, it executes line 40 when there are no more child processes, but it doesn't actually return to line 13. If
you hit a carriage return, it does return and execute line 13. This makes me think some process is still running, that the cleanup isn't
happening.

I assume this means I need to (1) run an older version of perl, (2) use a bleeding edge version >5.8.0 or (3) wait for 5.8.1.

Any other options?

Thanks again,
Nancy
