Hm. I also have a 5.8.7-no-threads Perl build on HPPA. I hadn't
tried that because that platform sucks at debugging shared libraries.
But building there now to see if I can reproduce the problem.

Sure. It seems perfectly clear that this has something to do with
being the first call in a session. (The validator function would
also count as the first call, which explains your previous Solaris
results.)
One thing I was kind of wondering about (this will betray the fact
that I haven't really studied Perl since it was Perl 4) is what are
the namespace issues for ::mksafefunc? In particular, could the
inner invocation of foo() be executing in some context that makes
the original definition of mksafefunc inaccessible? And why, if
we are careful to declare mksafefunc with ::, don't we call it
with :: too?
