Jsut wondering, been working with perl for about 1.5 years now off and
on.  I've got most things locked down, but this ones a bit wierd.  Why
would:

perl -e 'opendir(T,"."); $a = scalar(readdir(T)); print "$a\n";'

give :
..

You would think it would give some number like:
perl -e 'opendir(T,"."); @b = readdir(T) ; $a = scalar(@b); print
"$a\n";'

Giving:
22

Strange, yet occurrs on all 5.6.1 and 5.005 Versions on All NT and Unix
platforms I can find (SOlaris 8 , Mandrake 8.1 , NT 4.0 , AIX 4.3 ,
etc...)

Also, Can't seem to find a place to report Generic bugs like this (if it
turned out to be one)?



Cheers

Eric Aksomitis
