Stupid question: this isn't the old "first 4k not getting flushed" file locking bug?
That was an issue with Berkley DB (via DB_File), not SDBM_File, AFAIK.
I don't see how it could be. The mod_perl code unties the file after using it.
The message I get is "panic: sv_setpvn called with negative strlen" and it doesn't happen when the file is used from mod_perl.
I'm not familiar with SDBM guts, but it could be that mod_perl and perl have a different idea about some data type used by SDBM. like 32/64 bits so LFS could be an issue. Are you sure it's the same perl? How did you manipulate this file? Via mod_perl or some other module? If it's the same perl then it should probably work just fine, because I think perl brings in its own SDBM implementation and doesn't link against an external library.
