[MacPerl] Bug report (fwd)

[mark@cheers.jsc.nasa.gov (Mark Manning/Muniz Eng.)]

According to Jon Jacob:

That should be:

	last if $a == 999;

if you want to test it numerically.  Otherwise, if a hidden
character gets into the $a variable it may not stop when
you think it's supposed to stop.


But when I ran this several times it worked fine for me.
