On Windows XP, debugging any program, when the debugger starts the first time everything is fine. Press 'R' to restart the debugger and the following messages appear:
Warning: some settings and command-line options may be lost! Your vendor has not defined POSIX macro _SC_OPEN_MAX used at c:/Perl/l +ib/perl5db.pl line 3296 at c:/Perl/lib/POSIX.pm line 47 POSIX::AUTOLOAD() called at c:/Perl/lib/perl5db.pl line 3296 DB::DB called at u:/perlScripts/temp.pl line 3
Pressing the 'R' key again at the debugger prompt after these messages appear yields:
Warning: some settings and command-line options may be lost! Your vendor has not defined POSIX macro _SC_OPEN_MAX used at c:/Perl/l +ib/perl5db.pl line 3296 END failed--call queue aborted at u:/perlScripts/temp.pl line 269 at u:/perlScripts/temp.pl line 269 Debugger exited abnormally with code 9 ---------------------
The temp.pl program is a simple hello world script which doesn't have anywhere near 269 lines of code. This is a new phenomenon, I don't recall this happening before upgrading from 5.8.4. Any help would be appreciated.
