Recently I reported a bug which caused perl to segv. http://www.xray.mpe.mpg.de/mailing-lists/perl5-porters/2002-10/msg00346.html
I thought the solution might be more complex than it turned out to be, and so I included a patch to the test suite to add a TODO test using fresh_perl_is(). Rafael was quite rightly concerned about this. When the bug is fixed we don't want unneeded fresh_perl_is() tests lying around. What is the correct solution here? I was planning to submit another patch when the fix was done. I suppose the passing TODO test would be a reminder to do something. Is this the best way to handle this, or have I missed something? In this case, Rafael fixed the bug and added passing tests, so there was no problem, but in general what is the solution? Now I've asked the same question three times I'll wait for enlightenment :-) -- Paul Johnson - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.pjcj.net
