I concur with
choroba that it's odd. I see no difference under Perl 5.22 ActiveState (or 5.20):
This is perl 5, version 22, subversion 1 (v5.22.1) built for MSWin32-x
+86-multi-t
hread-64int
(with 1 registered patch, see perl -V for more detail)

But get an unhandled exception under 64-bit ActiveState 5.22 and 5.24:
This is perl 5, version 22, subversion 1 (v5.22.1) built for MSWin32-x
+64-multi-t

and it happens for this reduced example:
#! /usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use warnings;
use LWP::Simple;
open my $inf, "<", "temp.txt" or die; #This line no longer generates a
+ warning.
while (<$inf>) {
#while (<DATA>) {
my $html = getprint("https://clio.columbia.edu/catalog?q=How%20to%

}
exit;

Given that I'm seeing something slightly different, can you verify you still see the issue for this posted code? Otherwise, can you edit your code down at all and still see bad behavior?
#11929 First ask yourself `How would I do this without a computer?' Then have the computer do it the same way.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
