I can reproduce this crash on the following platform: Solaris 9 PostgreSQL 8.0.0beta4 (CVS) Perl 5.8.5 gcc 3.4.2 I can NOT reproduce the crash on the following platform: FreeBSD 4.10-STABLE PostgreSQL 8.0.0beta4 (CVS - same copy of source as above) Perl 5.8.6-RC1 gcc 2.95.4 The server log on the Solaris box shows this when it crashes (signal 10 is SIGBUS): Can't return outside a subroutine at (eval 4) line 13. LOG: server process (PID 25681) was terminated by signal 10 Adding a few elog lines to the function shows that it's crashing at the "return $res;" line. One of my gdb sessions showed the following, although haven't been able to get this same output again: Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault. 0xfec8c1e4 in Perl_av_fetch () from /usr/local/lib/libperl.so (gdb) bt #0 0xfec8c1e4 in Perl_av_fetch () from /usr/local/lib/libperl.so #1 0xfec689f4 in S_pad_findlex () from /usr/local/lib/libperl.so #2 0xfec68968 in Perl_pad_findmy () from /usr/local/lib/libperl.so -- Michael Fuhr http://www.fuhr.org/~mfuhr/ ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 1: subscribe and unsubscribe commands go to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
