Package: perl
Version: 5.6.1-7

We've discovered a program text that will cause perl to
segfault in compilation:


$ /usr/bin/perl
c and f.
my $S; { while((my $x, yz)=()){ } }
Segmentation fault (core dumped)


(The first line was supposed to be a comment and the "yz" in
the second line should be "$yz", of course.)

The problem doesn't seem to exist in 5.005 or 5.004 versions
of perl.  I haven't tested 5.8.

Debian 3.0, kernel 2.4.19

 dpkg -l perl-base perl-modules libc6 libdb2 libgdbmg1:

So it is. Closing accordingly.
