Subject: IO::File getline() fails on Mac OS 10.3
Small example script: ---- use IO::File; my $file = \*DATA; my $fh = IO::File->new_from_fd( $file, '<' ); print $fh->getline() . "\n"; __DATA__ stuff more stuff ---- prints 'stuff' on Linux, prints nothing on Mac OS X, with seemingly any recentish version of Perl
I know this is an old ticket, but this is no ah IO::File problem. It can be reproduced with plain perl open(my $dup,"<&DATA"); print tell(DATA)," ", tell($dup),"\n"; __DATA__ stuff a ticket has been filed on perl itself
