    Yes, with exit code 2.

    This is perl 5, version 26, subversion 1 (v5.26.1) built for x86_64-linux-thread-multi

      Will test on Linux tomorrow, but I doubt it's about the Perl version.

      Termux with 5.28 doesn't die.

       
$ perl

$VAR1 = "\x{3ddd}";
$VAR1 = '';
$VAR1 = "\x{fad8}";
$VAR1 = '';


$ perl -v

This is perl 5, version 28, subversion 2
 (v5.28.2) built for arm-android

      neither 5.18 nor 5.28 in my Ubuntu VM do die.

    Just a note on this subthread: Encode can be upgraded separately from Perl.

[reply]
      Ah, OK. It's

      archperlEncode
      x86_64-linux-thread-multi5.26.13.01
      x86_64-linux-thread-multi5.31.83.02
      arm-android 5.30.13.01

      All of them die.

        OK,my versions span from 2.49 to 2.97, none dies.

        I suppose you installed something which has a newer Encode in its dependencies.
