[Arsperl-users] arsperl 1.92 and ars 7.5 64bit

[_HK_ <cip...@gm...>]

Hi there,
I'm trying to get arsperl 1.92 work with ARS 7.5 64-bit(lx64) libraries, but
when I run make test, I am getting the following error:

PERL_DL_NONLAZY=1 /usr/bin/perl "-MExtUtils::Command::MM" "-e"
"test_harness(0, 'blib/lib', 'blib/arch')" t/*.t
t/00connect.t ........... *** glibc detected *** /usr/bin/perl: double free
or corruption (fasttop): 0x00000000018dbbe0 ***

And the test just hangs there. I have to ctrl-c to come out.

Running it under gdb, it seems like there's a bug in the code(?) that does a
double free or something? Here's a partial backtrace from gdb:
*#16 0x00007ff6222bd5b6 in malloc_printerr (action=3, str=0x7ff622390c70

It's the same result with or without -malign_double option. The architecture
is "lx64" and the linking was done as so:
LD_RUN_PATH="/usr/ar/7.5/api/lib" cc  -shared -O2 -g -L/usr/local/lib
-fstack-protector ARS.o support.o supportrev.o supportrev_generated.o   -o
blib/arch/auto/ARS/ARS.so /usr/ar/7.5/api/lib/libar_lx64.a \
   -L/usr/ar/7.5/api/lib -lnsl -lpthread -licuucbmc_lx64 -licui18nbmc_lx64
-licudatabmc_lx64

Has anyone got arsperl1.92 work with 64-bit perl and 64-bit 7.5 ar libs on
Linux? Any pointers/suggestions will be highly appreciated!
