segv in pad.c with threads (was: DBD::Oracle and Perl 5.8.2 threads)
Message-ID: <20040107121357.GD82921@dansat.data-plan.com>

Returning a closure from a thread (via join) could mess up because
pointers to PL_sv_undef weren't rejigged to point at the joiner's
version of PL_sv_undef. Also, the closure's CvGV got cloned too
but never freed, since CvGV isn't refcounted.
