Hello,

I seem to have a perl problem.  Not much of a perl person so not sure if
the problem is me or not.  I'm not even sure I should be posting to
freebsd-current@, but since it worked in 6.2... I'm assuming its perl+7.0=
=2E

Running current i386, and using perl 5.8.8, I get the following back
trace on an app that attempts to use perl for an add-on script.

#0  0x2972726c in Perl_malloc ()
   from /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.8/mach/CORE/libperl.so
#1  0x297d75dc in PerlIO_allocate ()
   from /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.8/mach/CORE/libperl.so
#2  0x297dc257 in PerlIO_stdstreams ()
   from /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.8/mach/CORE/libperl.so
#3  0x297dc2c2 in Perl_PerlIO_stderr ()
   from /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.8/mach/CORE/libperl.so
#4  0x297280b0 in Perl_malloc ()
   from /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.8/mach/CORE/libperl.so
#5  0x297d75dc in PerlIO_allocate ()
   from /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.8/mach/CORE/libperl.so
#6  0x297dc257 in PerlIO_stdstreams ()
   from /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.8/mach/CORE/libperl.so
#7  0x297dc2c2 in Perl_PerlIO_stderr ()
   from /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.8/mach/CORE/libperl.so
#8  0x297280b0 in Perl_malloc ()

Note that this app was working, as well as its add-on script a few days
back when I was running 6.2-STABLE.  I backed-up everything, formatted
my disk, installed 7.0 (snapshot), cvsup'd to most recent (sunday
evening)... reinstalled the app in question from package, then from
ports.  It however always results in the above bt.  If I remove the
script from the add-ons (its the only script I have) the app runs fine.

Wondering if a bug report is warranted?  Should it be filed under xchat,
perl, or what?

Any thoughts?

Thanks.

Eric
