[Catalyst] Catalyst::Plugin::Authentication under ActivePerl 5.8.7.813

[stephen joseph butler]

It's not Windows specific, I've seen it under FinkCommander. As far as
I can tell, that line should be

open( $self->{restore}->{stdin}, '<&', STDIN->fileno )
      or croak("Can't dup stdin: $!");

Try that. I've been meaning to file a formal bug. I'll do it today.
