Installing Padre from CPAN doen't install Thread::Queue making Padre crash

Description

Strawberry Perl 5.10.0.4
Padre 0.27

Install Strawberry Perl from scratch.
Install Padre via CPAN. (as documented on the website)

Although Makefile.PL specifies Threads::Queue v2.11, threads::shared v1.26 and threads v1.71, CPAN doesn't install them and leaving only the core modules, Threads::Queue v2.00, threads::shared v1.14 and threads v1.67

I suspect this has to do with trick_eumm;

As a result on various occasions (on exit, when opening CPAN config, etc.) padre will crash because Thread::Queue v2.00 lacks the insert method which it tries to use.

How To Fix:

Install the latest version of Thread::Queue and threads::shared manually with CPAN.

It is recommended to upgrade threads too.

    cpan> install threads
    cpan> install threads::shared
    cpan> install Thread::Queue
