But that's not a good idea, because the stack size at build time might be different at run time, eg. the stack size may have been modified with ulimit(1). If it's larger at run time Storable may fail the freeze() or thaw() unnecessarily. If it's larger at build time Storable may segmentation fault when processing a deep structure at run time. (a quote from the Storable 3.15 doc at https://metacpan.org/pod/Storable) i.e. the build should be done at whatever the ulimit is for a _normal user_. 8>< -------- > > My conclusion is that the segfaults are caused intentionally when trying > to determine the recursion limit and we do not need to do anything. Agreed. Perl 5.28.1 which is in LFS 8.4 comes with Storable 3.08. Storable 3.15 (current in CPAN) does not do the recursion level tests any more, so with any luck LFS 8.5 will not have the segfaults (Perl 5.29, still Devel, has Storable 3.15).
