Perl segfault in cppcomments.t
Paul Cochrane
I'm getting perl segfaulting on these files when I run
t/codingstd/cppcomments.t:
# src/ops/core.ops
# src/ops/io.ops
# src/ops/object.ops
# src/ops/pmc.ops
# src/ops/set.ops
# src/ops/stack.ops
# src/ops/string.ops
Is anyone else having this problem? The issue seems to be in the
regular expressions which the test uses to strip out C-comments and
single and double quoted strings before looking for C++ comments. My
regexp foo isn't that great, and so is there something too complicated
going on in the regexp which is causing the failure? I'm aware that
on other systems and setups the test runs fine so it would be
interesting to find out what's going on here.
See below for the myconfig for my system, and my current version of perl.
Regards,
Paul

I'm running Gentoo Linux if that helps at all.
