Eew! Yuck! Bad programmer! No cookie!
From 'perldoc perlthrtut':
What kind of threads are Perl threads?
If you have experience with other thread implementations, you might find
that things aren't quite what you expect. It's very important to
remember when dealing with Perl threads that *Perl Threads Are Not X
Threads* for all values of X. They aren't POSIX threads, or DecThreads,
or Java's Green threads, or Win32 threads. There are similarities, and
the broad concepts are the same, but if you start looking for
implementation details you're going to be either disappointed or
confused. Possibly both.
> the $thr->is_running still returns true
Since you mucked with Perl's threads externally, you compromised Perl's ability to track its threads' status.
