Summary: *** glibc detected *** /usr/bin/perl: free(): invalid pointer:
0x01026000 ***
Category: None

Resolution: None
Initial Comment:
a few perl applications, perldoc notably, crash with
*** glibc detected *** /usr/bin/perl: free(): invalid pointer: 0x01026000 ***
This is in perl_destruct:
for (i = 0; environ[i]; i++)
safesysfree(environ[i]);
/* Must use safesysfree() when working with environ. */
safesysfree(environ);
It's trying to free the environ that glibc has settled. This part of
the perl code really looks like black magic to me, I guess the hurd
part of glibc is even darker.
This seems to happen only within a fakeroot-tcp session.

Upstream bug reported upstream.
Actually a bad interaction of perl's assumption that nobody calls
putenv and can thus tinker with it, and libfakeroot which actually
calls putenv.
