And this is probably also the culprit for these two other failures:

    t/op/taint .................................................... #
    Failed test 732 - tainted $! at op/taint.t line 2060
    #      got '1073741826'
    # expected !~ /(?^:^\d+$)/
    FAILED at test 732

    t/run/switches ................................................ #
    Failed test 9 - RT \#61362: Cannot syntax-check a directory at run/switches.t line 128
    #      got 'Can\'t open perl script \"tmp20669C\": (null)\n'
    # expected /(?^s:Can't open perl script.*tmp20669C.*1073741845)/

since these tests seem to be parsing the error message too.
