Hello again,
I think I found the construct that causes these segfaults.
Things like
my %b : shared;
$b{a} = &share( { a => 1, b => 2 });
tend to lead to these crashes.
Also note this bug:
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use threads;
use threads::shared;
use Data::Dumper;
my %b : shared;
my %tmp : shared = ( a => 1, b => 2 );
$b{a} = \%tmp;
$b{b} = &share( { a => 1, b => 2 } ); # no error, but ...
print Dumper(\%b);
============8<==============
The output of this script:
$VAR1 = {
'a' => {
'a' => '1',
'b' => '2'
},
'b' => {}
};
Note that the key 'b' contains an empty hash reference.
The content is missing.
