     Only one mangler or prefix can be in use at the same time in a given

+    The implementation was tweaked to work around several limitations of
+    vanilla "perl" pragmas : it's thread safe, and doesn't suffer from a
+    "perl 5.8.x-5.10.0" bug that causes all pragmas to propagate into
+    "require"d scopes.
+
+    With 5.8 perls, the pragma does not propagate into "eval STRING". This
+    is due to a shortcoming in the way perl handles the hints hash, which is
+    addressed in perl 5.10.
