Same answer as Jerry - works here on x86/linux.
Ugh. And if I build Parrot on my Linux box it doesn't show there. I've
done some hunting and found something interesting. It seems to be something
to do with alignment code. See packfile.c:1303.
if (align && (cursor - self->pf->src) % align)
cursor += align - (cursor - self->pf->src) % align;
When we reach this line:-
cursor = 6584048
self->pf->src = 8534776
Which doesn't look particularly good. It actually ends up adding bytes to
something that's already aligned on a 4-byte boundary (and it ends up not
being aligned).
Thoughts?
