I log that as a bug, but it's really an enhancement request...
It appears:
$cache{value} .= "whatever";
is not understood properly by tied arrays. Same probably goes for
all <op>= operators...
That's too bad because it means you cannot transparently make a
hash a tied one to create a DBM database out of it, from an existing
program...
I understand why this is happening... Maybe we could use the
overload mechanism to provide a fully transparent tie?
