Too bad hasn't been released yet and is not on any distribution. There is only
a 5.32.0-RC0 available. The fix is now in blead (the development branch) and
should be in 5.32.0-RC1 and the 5.32.0. There will be no backport of the fix to
5.30.x or 5.28.x as it would break compatibility.
The workaround is to disable perl or disable automatic reloading of the config
file? Linking against Perl 5.26.x or earlier should work too.
