Then it's SEP; Somebody Else's Problem. Unflushed buffers are the
documented behaviour when autoflushing hasn't been enabled. If you expect
different behaviour you have a bug in your script. You don't want to try to
automagically fix "bugs" in people scripts. Teaching pigs to fly and all
that... :-)

Of course, the different behaviour between MacPerl and CorePerl is a "bug"
of some sort AFAICT.

Unless you're talking about an Embedded Perl Interpreter here, no. But then
I'm a UN*X dweeb -- and no expert either -- so someone (anyone?) else may
have an idea (i.e. caveat emptor ;D).
