If anybody has any tuits about this:

Progress so far:
When built on Ubuntu Lucid x86_64 with ICU packages installed
(libicu-dev libicu42), ignorecase.rakudo and dash-e.t run correctly.
After removing the two ICU packages, the two tests fail exactly as
you described.
1) ignorecase.t - reduced to bare bones.
On a 64-bit system that lacks ICU;
Running this code:
use v6;
$_ = 'a';
#m:i/δ/;
m:i/ß/;
gives this (appropriate) error:
===SORRY!===
no ICU lib loaded
Uncommenting line 3 changes the error to:
===SORRY!===
Confused at line 3, near "m:i/\u03b4/;\nm:"
I do not know why the two lines produce different errors, but I
suspect it is a bug.
2) dash-e.t - reduced a single line.
On a 64-bit system that lacks ICU;
my $c = "\c[LATIN SMALL LETTER A WITH DOT ABOVE]";
This produces the same error (segfault) as the whole dash-e.t file.
When I run it this way:
parrot_install/bin/parrot perl6.pbc d1.p6
I get:
===SORRY!===
attempt to access code outside of current code segment
I do not have a 32-bit system that lacks ICU,
but when I ran both examples on 32-bit Darwin with Parrot configured --
without-icu,
I get the exact same results.
Therefore, I think you can move this from 64-bit issues, to no-ICU
issues.
Perhaps this will allow a larger pool of people to assist.

Hope this helps,
