Hi,

I run two perl smokers and they've often been failing tests with errors like 
this:

      %Config::Config is read-only
      BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at C:/Perl/lib/ActiveState/Path.pm line 
12.
      Compilation failed in require at C:/Perl/lib/ActivePerl/Config.pm line 46.

Today i traced another occurence of this in App::Info::Util, specifically in 
sub lib_dirs. This lead me to finding a very minimal reproducable pattern for 
this error which i'm not sure should be one:

      use Config;
      # print 1 if $Config{foo}; # enabling this removes the crash
      grep { $_ } $Config{bar}; # this crashes

These two lines on their own will cause ActivePerl of any version to exit with 
the error message above. I'm not sure what exactly causes this or whether i 
should send this to the p5p mailing list, but i figured here is better for a 
start.

I'm very open to any suggestions on how to move on with this and will happily 
provide any information asked for.
