+Since 5.6.0, C<*{ ... }> has been inconsistent in how it treats undefined
+values.  It would die in strict mode or lvalue context for most undefined
+values, but would be treated as the empty string (with a warning) for the
+specific scalar return by C<undef()> (C<&PL_sv_undef> internally).  This
+has been corrected.  C<undef()> is now treated like other undefined
+scalars, as in Perl 5.005.
