Just wondering if you can summarize in what way it's broken, and if IO::Scalar would be broken in the same way (or broken in an entirely different way :-)

  I may have answered my own question. I've played with this a bit on 5.6 on Unix vs. 5.8 on Windows, and it seems like the local *STDIN doesn't unlocalize after the enclosing block in 5.6. If I use the tied interface in IO::Scalar, it works ok if I untie *STDIN at the end of the block, but with "local" I shouldn't have to (and I don't have to in 5.8).
