I'm running FBSD 7.1-p2 and inn-2.4.5 with largefile support and

The recent Perl-upgrade to 5.8.9 crashes innd (core dump) at start-
up, reproducible. I did re-compile all ports including inn, same
result. Then I removed Perl support during configuration, re-
compiled, and now innd starts and runs as expected.
I just want to bring this to your attention, if you won't know this
already. I couldn't find reports at the ports-mailing list sofar.
Hope that this isn't to difficult to fix. Let me know if you need
help in further debugging.
This bug can be solved by applying the following patch:
--- inn-2.4.5/lib/perl.c 2008-06-29 19:56:57.000000000 +0200

This patch has been proposed by the current main developer of INN
(Julien Élie),
see Usenet thread at:
http://groups.google.com/group/news.software.nntp/browse_frm/thread/42238dc9237b5a81?q=
It did work for me after applying this patch to inn's vanilla tarfile,
putting the
patches tarfile into /usr/ports/distfiles/, modifying news/inn/
distinfo to cover
the new size and checksums, and re-installing with portmaster.
Regards,
Michael
