(I must be tired today. This is the second bug report I’ve muddled up. I sent it first without the perlbug output. It disappeared, but—who knows?—it may pop up again someday.)

In trying to write a test for an assignment bug, I came across this anomaly with tied()​:

sub TIESCALAR {bless[]}
sub FETCH { 1 }
sub STORE{}
tie $rin, "";
$rin = *rin;
print qw[good bad][!tied $rin];

tied returns undef, so this prints ‘bad’. tied checks first to see whether its argument is a glob. If it is, it returns undef if the IO slot is empty.

So the the tiedness, according to tied(), varies depending on what the last value happened to be that was returned or assigned.

There should be a patch attached hereto. I put the explanation of OPf_SPECIAL above OP_HELEM to avoid a conflict with the patch for bug #20444.

[perl #77496] tied gets scalars and globs confused

• Give a tied op a special flag if the RHS is an rv2gv.
• Make pp_tied use that to distinguish between tied scalars and
  tied handles.

This fixes the problem of tied($scalar) ignoring the tie if the last
thing returned or assigned happened to be a glob.

I have applied a simplified version as 8752206. (2acc331 allows pp_tied
to check just the FAKE flag on a glob, to determine whether it should be
considered one.)

I’ve re-opened this, since the fix was reverted for 5.14. See #79528.

And now I’m closing it, as the revert was reverted as 4be76e1.
