BBC: bleadperl breaks ETHER/Package-Stash-XS-0.30.tar.gz on DEBUGGING perls #23903
Description
Description
Sample fail report with v5.43.4: https://www.cpantesters.org/cpan/report/0cf94468-b118-11f0-801a-aef4e0e1b722
From that report the assertion:
perl: regexec.c:856: Perl_pregexec: Assertion `stringarg < strend' failed.
More recent fail report with v5.43.4-71-g4092daf53e: https://www.cpantesters.org/cpan/report/f1120b74-b7eb-11f0-8ac1-e4b6dff035f7
From that report the assertion is:
perl: regexec.c:820: Perl_pregexec: Assertion `stringarg < strend' failed.
I also have a result at hand with bleadperl v5.43.4-93-gb9a78e5da4 with the same assertion that I have not uploaded.
