when I ran "make test" I get 1 failure. Looks like this ...

I am running kubutu fiesty x86_64 on a pentium-D 925 & 1gb ram
The general consensus is that this recurring and sporadic problem is
related to an ongoing GC bug. I've merged #44495 into RT#43481, which
has some other discussion of the same issue.
GC == GCC? I am using gcc version 4.1.2
What happens if you run the test directly from parrot, both with and
without the -G flag?
$ parrot examples/shootout/regexdna.pir
tried :
$ ./parrot examples/shootout/regexdna.pir
<examples/shootout/regexdna.pir.input
and got the same seg fault
$ parrot -G examples/shootout/regexdna.pir
With the -G switch it seemed to run normally without the seg fault and
produced the proper output
Also, very important -- what svn revision of Parrot is showing the
segfault for you?
just the download tar file version 0.4.14
