Package: perl-5.005-base
Version: 5.005.03-4.1
Severity: normal


automake is a perl script.  electric-fence thinks it has a bad memory
reference: 

  $ LD_PRELOAD=libefence.so.0.0 automake --add-missing
  
    Electric Fence 2.0.5 Copyright (C) 1987-1998 Bruce Perens.
  Segmentation fault (core dumped)

The directory contents after this (which also indicates which files
automake would try to copy in) is as follows:
  
  $ ls
  AUTHORS      NEWS          core         squeegee.c        squeegee.texinfo
  ChangeLog    README        gpl.texinfo  squeegee.lsm.in   system.h
  Makefile.am  configure.in  squeegee.1   squeegee.spec.in  xmalloc.c
    
(core is 65 MB)

I have automake 1.4-6 and electric-fence 2.1.3 .
  
Here's the version of perl I am using:

  vanzandt:~# update-alternatives --display perl
  perl - status is auto.

  Current `best' version is /usr/bin/perl-5.005.
