Thanks--certainly an improvement. I tried a 25k file, which worked fine.
However a 1.8MB file still caused a segfault.
If you can't replicate the problem, let me know what diagnostics you'd
like me to run. I'm not familiar with gdb, so I'm not sure where to
start.

I'm running latest Apache, mod_perl, and Perl, under Linux (2.2 kernel).
PS: Can anyone point me to a tutorial on debugging XS modules? From time
to time Doug provides some magic gdb commands which are really
helpful--I'd love to be able to do this kind of stuff myself...
