(https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=132641)

This is probably due to this change in 5.31.6 (quoting perl5136delta.pod):

    *   The OS-level signal handlers and type (Sighandler_t) used by the
        perl core were declared as having three parameters, but the OS was
        always told to call them with one argument. This has been fixed by
        declaring them to have one parameter. See the merge commit
        "v5.31.5-346-g116e19abbf" for full details.

DB.XS Fixed ( not longer working for Perl >= v5.21.5 ) broken in commit [perl #122445] use magic on $DB::single etc to avoid overload issues)
