Okay. I reverted to my 5.8.4 installation, and rebuilt from scratch and then ran the 01test.t with the same result. A segfault when running either test 9 or 10. I looked into 01test.t, but couldn't easily work out which test corresponded to which number as several are commented out, and it's not obvious from teh data logged exactly which test (9 or 10) is actually giving the segfault?

The "good enough" maybe good enough for the now, and perfection maybe unobtainable, but that should not preclude us from striving for perfection, when time, circumstance or desire allow.
