Re: Re: malloc crash

"I first saw "perl in free(): warning: recursive call" repeating several times, then came this "perl in malloc(): warning: recursive call", and crash"
I have exactly this stuff.

"SO UPGRADE TO 5.8.0"
I'm using standart FreeBSD4.7 perl. It has 5.005 version number. I always wanted to know: what is the 5.00x branch and the 5.x.x branch? Is 5.005 === 5.8.0?

Nope 5.005 < 5.8.0 For one big difference. 5.8 has threads and 5.005 does not.	[reply]

5.8 has threads and 5.005 does not. Well, actually support for threads was added in 5.005. Of course it was very experimental and it have changed significantly since this version. -- Ilya Martynov, ilya@iponweb.net CTO IPonWEB (UK) Ltd Quality Perl Programming and Unix Support UK managed @ offshore prices - http://www.iponweb.net Personal website - http://martynov.org	[reply]

GOK but this is how the version numbering goes with Perl 5 `5.004 == 5.4 5.005 == 5.5 5.6 == 5.6 (5.006) 5.8 == 5.8 (5.008)` [download] cheers tachyon s&&rsenoyhcatreve&&&s&n.+t&"$'$`$\"$\&"&ee&&y&srve&&d&&print	[reply] [d/l]
