The patch definitely exists. It's in the development track of perl (5.9.x):

http://public.activestate.com/cgi-bin/perlbrowse?patch=22818

I've not yet integrated it into the maintenance branch, but I intend to,
so unless it causes really really strange errors (very unlikely) it will
be in 5.8.5. (Which in turn will be in mid July)
