Folks - On the two occasions I've tried to contact different testers about failure reports, after going through the double secret decoder email thing, I find that the resulting email address is not valid.
The two email addresses I tried were r...@klanker.bingosnet.co.uk for http://www.cpantesters.org/cpan/report/93d6bf78-37f2-11e1-a48f-e7fb434ae6f1and stro.cpante...@sttek.com for http://www.cpantesters.org/cpan/report/90b831c6-2921-11e1-a6d1-5544585997e0 (emails addresses above are after converting "at" and "dots" in the CGI output.) With regards to the most recent first failure listed above, this error could possibly be a bug in Perl. The report says Use of uninitialized value within @DB::dbline in numeric eq (==) at ... which basically says that the magic integer conversion for @DB::line isn't happening. Odd because it the -d option is given. Recall that @DB::dbline is "magically" is maintained and can be compared numerically. Among other places, this is mentioned in http://perldoc.perl.org/perldebguts.html#Writing-Your-Own-Debugger Looking at http://www.cpantesters.org/distro/D/Devel-Trepan.html (for version Devel::Trepan 0.1.8) it seems that the only smokers that fail are the ones that have configuration PERL_PRESERVE_IVUV and MULTIPLICITY with Perl versions 5.14.x on OS's NetBSD or FreeBSD. PERL_PRESERVE_IVUV means preserve Integer variables; this is suspicious because what we see here is an integer conversion failure. Any insight or suggestions you can give would be appreciated. Thanks.
