I have a bug that I managed to isolate to these conditions:

1)  C code starts a perl interpretor that blesses an object
2)  C code calls a perl function that creates an anon sub that
    refers to the blessed object.
3)  C code calls a perl function that calls the anon sub.

Depending on where and how the blessed object was referred to in
the code *around* the anon sub, it can become undefined in the anon sub.

For example, if the blessed variable isn't mentioned except in
the sub, it will get "lost" (and have an undef value in the sub).

If you just refer to it, then it won't get lost, and sometimes this
fixes other creation of anon subs.  It has weird behavior, but it
is reproducible.  Calling a subroutine (other than a builtin like
print) inside the anon sub fixes the problem as well.

I tried to run it on perl 5.6.0, but my 5.6 is threaded, and
that's another problem..

Here's the tar of my makefile, the C code and the perl code
