    Work around perl bug in SvPVutf8(). · 2abefd9a
    Andrew Dunstan authored
    Certain things like typeglobs or readonly things like $^V cause
    perl's SvPVutf8() to die nastily and crash the backend. To avoid
    that bug we make a copy of the object, which will subsequently be
    garbage collected.
    
    Back patched to 9.1 where we first started using SvPVutf8().
    
    Per -hackers discussion. Original problem reported by David Wheeler.
