Subject: t\30_loops\select\wheel_tail.t hangs on WIndows
Strawberry perl 5.10.1, Windows XP 32-bit Russian. Hanging is repeatable. Does not hang on newer version of perl or 5.8.9 (did not test on other older versions yet). C:\strawberry\cpan\build\POE-1.354-9EEL9V>perl -Mblib t\30_loops\select\wheel_tail.t 1..10 ok 1 - received connection (hangs) -- Alexandr Ciornii, http://chorny.net

I'll accept patches to fix this bug, but it seems to be isolated to a small number of people using an unsupported version of Perl[1] running on a deprecated version of Windows[2]. As such, the effort to reproduce this bug seems to far outweigh the utility of fixing it. [1] http://www.cpan.org/src/ says support for 5.10.1 ended nearly 4 years ago. [2] http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/endofsupport.aspx ... "If your organization has not started the migration to a modern desktop, you are late."

Marking rejected. This bug occurs using old Perl on old Windows. It is fixed in newer versions of Perl. If anyone can provide a patch, please reopen this ticket to do it. Thank you.
