No, 'par' will still build and run, but the program it generates, 'parl', will not be executable. >I have checked in this line: > fakeargv[0] = savepv(SvPV_nolen(GvSV(tmpgv))); /* restore argv[0] */ > >right after the problematic "SvSETMAGIC(GvSV(tmpgv));", and it seems to >make the error go away. Would you give it a try? It works great :) That fixes the symptoms & makes the program work as expected, but did it fix the actual problem? Why does fakeargs[0] actually get corrupted? -- Ian Cass
