A workaround is to append all the output data to an array and print it
in one print loop at the end.

I seem to recall some major differences between 5.0 and 5.8. I know
there are aspects of 5.8 that have cased pain in big applications
(Interchange) due to the threaded perl that RedHat ships with. Threaded
perl is a great idea, but it can cause problems if the app is not
designed to avoid it if not needed. I don't know enough to use it so I
had to recompile perl to be non-threaded for use in Interchange.

THE PROBLEM is that the print output appears to be hanging in the buffer.  I get a little bit of output and then the program hangs.  I have grepped the process and find that it is asleep after a few seconds.
