 [patch] make test-block work with perl 5.23.8 

In 5.23.8, the order of steps that perl takes when leaving a scope has
changed. In particular, destructors are now called *before* PL_curcop
is restored and before the context is popped from the stack.

The net effect of this is that caller() called from a destructor called
while exiting a scope will see the last line of the exiting scope rather
than its first line, and may see STOREs still in the call stack that
were triggered by undoing a locations of a tied variable, that themselves
trigger destructors.
