Suppose I have an array of which an element is tied. List assignment
of the array to itself would of course drop the tiedness, by virtue of
copying the tied scalar's value to a fresh, untied scalar. But if I
assign the result of a sort on the array back to the array, tiedness
remains​:

$ perl -lwe 'package T { sub TIESCALAR { bless({}, $_[0]) } sub FETCH { "b" } } @​a = qw(a b c); tie $a[1], "T"; print tied($a[1]) // "undef"; @​a = sort @​a; print tied($a[1]) // "undef"; @​a = ((), sort @​a); print tied($a[1]) // "undef"'
T=HASH(0x7a8ad0)
T=HASH(0x7a8ad0)
undef

Obviously this is yet another fault of the in-place sort optimisation,
similar to the recently-rectified treatment of weak references.
