When generating a stub PMC with F<tools/dev/gen_class.pl>, the generated stub terminates the compile process the first time miniparrot is run. This is because the freshly generated stub overrides the C<namespace> method to return a null PMC. Simply commenting out the overridden C<namespace> method resolves the problem (because the default C<namespace> works correctly). But, the first experience when creating a new PMC should not be hunting down obscure compile errors. So, fix F<tools/dev/gen_class.pl> so it either doesn't generate a stub method for C<namespace>, or so it generates the method commented out. ------ The error during compile: Invoking Parrot to generate runtime/parrot/include/config.fpmc --cross your fingers ./miniparrot config_lib.pasm > runtime/parrot/include/config.fpmcmake: *** [runtime/parrot/include/config.fpmc] Error 138 gdb reports: Program received signal EXC_BAD_ACCESS, Could not access memory.
