There does look like one possibility. Perlguts mentions that with Perl 5.16 and earlier:
Copy-on-write (see the next section) shared a flag bit with read-only scalars. So the only way to test whether sv_setsv , etc., will raise a "Modification of a read-only value" error in those versions is: SvREADONLY(sv) && !SvIsCOW(sv)
Scalar::Util doesn't do anything special for 5.16 or earlier, so it could have false positives in that case. Of course, 5.18 (where it's fixed) was released in 2013 :)

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).
