The general consensus is that this recurring and sporadic problem is
related to an ongoing GC bug. I've merged #44495 into RT#43481, which
has some other discussion of the same issue.
What happens if you run the test directly from parrot, both with and
without the -G flag?
$ parrot examples/shootout/regexdna.pir
$ parrot -G examples/shootout/regexdna.pir
Also, very important -- what svn revision of Parrot is showing the
segfault for you?
Thanks!
