This memory leak (I assume that it's the same %+ leak unless there were two different leaks associated with %+) affected me writing Date::Manip so I've been tracking it fairly closely.
The leak exists in:
5.10.1
5.12.4
5.14.2
5.15.5
The bug has been fixed in:
5.15.6
So unfortunately (to my knowledge) there is currently no released stable version which does not suffer from the leak, and unless they release a maintenance version of 5.14, it won't be until fixed in a stable release until 5.16.

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).
