Thanks for the detailed report, Swen. Frankly I'm puzzled about the lack of errors. Before we go into low level tracing, I'd like to check something:
[...]
perl -V[...]
optimize='-O3',
From gcc(1):
-O3 Optimize yet more. -O3 turns on all optimizations specified by -O2 and also turns on the -finline-functions, -fweb, -funit-at-a-time, -ftracer, -funswitch-loops and -frename-registers options.
Mandrake 9.2 perl build has the following optimization flags:
optimize='-O2 -fomit-frame-pointer -pipe -march=i586 -mcpu=pentiumpro ',
I've heard about cases where the program won't function properly when a value higher than -O2 was used. Any chance you could try and rebuild perl with its default optimizations or an explict -O2, then rebuild mod_perl and run the tests again?
Or I'd first just try to rebuild mod_perl with
CCOPTS='-O0 -g' perl Makefile.PL ...
and only if the problem persists then perl and consequently mod_perl.
Thanks.
