See test.pl

setting variable 'breakit' to '1' will cause perl to loop indefinetly

it fails in an eval called by AutoLoader where the require $filename
contains a directory '/' i.e. BZS​::TestModule evaluates to BZS/TestModule

failure occurs for use, require and the same thing enclosed in BEGIN{}
fails as well.

Don't make install this on your system, just build and make test, changing
the variable breakit. See the changes in
local blib/lib/auto/BZS/TestModule/prnt_split.al

This fault goes back at least as far as 5.0 patchlevel 4 subversion 4,
running on linux 1.2.13, which is the oldest perl I have and fails on
revision 5.0 version 6 subversion 0, linux 2.2.14

Both of these systems are i86 based.

Your code does not even run. "mkdir $foo, 0644" does not a useful
directory make...

Please test it again with perl 5.8 and/or make a simpler test case to
show the problem.
