Description:

After upgrading perl to 5.30.0-2, `munin-node` can no longer run its plugins.

Additional info:
* package version(s)
- perl 5.30.0-2
- munin-node 2.0.47-2
* config and/or log files etc.
- Attached is a fragment of the munin-node log file. The whole file contains many more similar lines.
* upstream issues
https://github.com/munin-monitoring/munin/issues/1202 might be related, but it's not the best.

Steps to reproduce:

- Fully upgrade to perl 5.30.0
- Configure munin normally to run on the local munin-node
- Observe no plugins actually giving output
   munin-node.log (0.9 KiB)

The title is missing the world "perl" before the version number.

A patch was posted but it turned out to be a regression in perl 5.30. An upstream bug has been created here: https://rt.perl.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=134194
   perl-5.30.patch (0.6 KiB)

Is the patch save to be kept or will I have to revert it manually once the bug is solved upstream?

I'm not that well versed in perl, but looking at the source code it _should_ be equivalent. However, upstream notes that this patch mostly hides the issue and does not fix it, so I'm probably wrong.
