I would guess it's a bug, because the program behaves more in line with your (and my) expectations on Perl 5.12:
use Symbol;
use 5.012;
{
package Foo;
sub TIEHANDLE {
my ($sClass, $fh) = @_;
return bless([$fh], $sClass);
}
sub PRINT {
my $self = shift;
my $fh = $self->[0];
CORE::print $fh "tied to $self:", @_;
}
}
my $x=gensym;
tie *$x, 'Foo', \*STDOUT;
local $\="\n***\n";
say "Not tied: I'm just saying ...";
say $x "I'm just saying ...";
# outputs (note that say $x is followed by "\n***\n"
# not "\n"
#
# Not tied: I'm just saying ...
# tied to Foo=ARRAY(0x8197ed0):I'm just saying ...
# ***
This is on Strawberry Perl 5.12:
This is perl 5, version 12, subversion 1 (v5.12.1) built for MSWin32-x

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).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
