This is a bug report for perl from Terry.Grieb@intel.com\, generated with the help of perlbug 1.34 running under perl v5.8.2.
----------------------------------------------------------------- [Please enter your report here]
The following small example shows that the alarm never happens on Windows perl 5.8.x. Either a sleep of an input from \
will show the problem.
$SIG{ALRM} = sub { die; };
print "Note alarm does not stop sleep (or input) - It never fires!\n"; print "Alarm should fire in 2 secs\n";
alarm( 2 ); sleep 10; print "Sleep ended without alarm.\n";
exit( 0 );
