You're invited to post an updated distribution to CPAN. I'd like to think I have time to work on this but really, I don't.

That's this. o->op_targ = Perl_pad_alloc(pTHX_ 0, SVs_PADTMP); pTHX_, when threading is on, is this. # define pTHX register tTHX my_perl PERL_UNUSED_DECL and that ain't legal as a function argument. When threads are off its just void. So to reproduce this bug you need to have ithreads compiled in (technically just IMPLICIT_CONTEXT).

Oooh, right. That should probably have been aTHX_. Its an argument now, not a parameter declaration. The copy of B::Generate I'm looking at now (1.06 plus a bunch of other people's patches) doesn't reflect the bug. So s/pTHX_/aTHX_/.
