That sounds strange and perl should not do that. Can you post a self-contained
and reproducing example that exhibits this behaviour? Sometimes reducing your
code to the bare reproducing minimum helps in finding where the problem is. I
could also use some information about your system (OS, distribution, perl,
versions , CPU architecture, etc.)
