Excerpts from the mail message of Adrian Lucas:
) Contrary to what it says is FAQ 4.15 I have found that this one line script:
)
) while (<STDIN>) {print}
)
) works fine in 4.035 but in 5.001 produces no output and no error.
Fails for me on perl5.001e but works on perl5.001m. I think it
was an overambitious Perl optimizer problem that caused it.
You can fetch the latest perl from:
ftp://ftp.metronet.com/pub/perl/source/perl5.001m.tar.gz
