[VPM] Perl threads recursion

[Nathanael Kuipers]

Just out of curiosity, have you given File::Find (bundled with Perl) and 
File::Find::Rule (uber File::Find, "find" it on CPAN)?  Randal Schwartz has 
written some columns about these modules if their documentation does not 
suffice.  You can find them at 
http://www.stonehenge.com/merlyn/LinuxMag/col45.html and 
http://www.stonehenge.com/merlyn/LinuxMag/col46.html.  It sounds like what you 
are wanting to do could be done much more simply with one of these modules, 
without the explicit recursion/threads chicanery.
