+Subject: [PATCH] Avoid Copy-On-Write problems with Perl 5.20
+
+Quoting Dave Mitchell in https://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=95940
+
+ After FC's commit, $buf gets marked as COW, since its a copy of a
+ COWable constant (the constant string "") and mmap() never unsets this
+ flag before stealing its buffer. So later on when it applies substr()
+ to $buf, the var is assumed to be COW and bad things happen to it.
+
+ The correct usage is still up for debate (see Leon's use case in
+ rt.perl.org tickets #116407 and #116925), but calling SvPV_force()
+ first would be a good first step (although that will cause the previous
+ contents of PVX() to leak). It might be better for Mmap.pm to call mmap()
+ with an undef value rather than assigning "" to it first.
