Re^2: Segmentation fault on concat

"Perl should never segfault(*). "

Why ;-?

It might make sense to say that it is not really up to the OP to cause seg fault, unless he is directly doing some c code through Perl. But Perl seg faults, as what inside is c, and c seg faults.

Does't matter whether his code is bad or good. If Perl seg faults when run his code, it is still a bug in Perl.

Update:

After read gaal's reply, and also some private chat with her, I think that I might have misunderstood dave_the_m's intention, and actually he meant the same thing as what I put in my reply.

I believe dave_the_m meant that perl isn't supposed to segfault, and that if it does it's a bug in perl -- not to claim the OP was lying :)	[reply]

I believe dave_the_m meant that perl isn't supposed to segfault yeah, I meant that, just didn't phrase it well. Apologies to the OP! Dave.	[reply]
