in reply to B::Hooks::OP::Check::StashChange causes split to disappear
The split builtin is not being disabled. XS modules are in (augmented) C; the perl core is in C. XS modules can do anything.
You have an XS module that modifies the compilation process. Either you are misusing B::Hooks::OP::Check::StashChange somehow or that module has a bug that prevents split from being properly compiled when a hook is in place.
