I have a peculiar problem with a modperl module I have written. When
migrating to the following configuration:
perl, v5.6.0 built for sun4-solaris
modperl_20000911162240 (1.2401)
apache-1.3_20000911161201
If I attempt to load the module in my startup.pl using:
use Savvy::Moveform ();
the server SIGSEGVs with the following stack trace:
(gdb) set args -X
(gdb) run
Starting program: /www/sbin/httpd -X
[New LWP 1]
[New LWP 2]
[New LWP 3]
[New LWP 4]
Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

The <Perl> section defining the Location directive for the modules is:
$Location{'/Moveform'} = {
Options => 'FollowSymLinks -Indexes',
Sethandler => 'perl-script',
PerlHandler => 'Savvy::Moveform',
PerlSendHeader => 'Off',
AuthType => 'Savvy::AuthCookieHandler',
AuthName => 'AuthCookie',
PerlAuthenHandler => 'Savvy::AuthCookieHandler->authenticate',
PerlAuthzHandler => 'Savvy::AuthCookieHandler->authorize',
require => 'valid_wrkr'
};
Does the trace indicate the Location directive as the culprit? If so,
it doesn't seem to get too far into it before it bonks. Suggestions?
This same configuration and module functions as expected using perl
5.005_03 built for sun4-solaris, mod_perl 1.2201, apache-1.3_20000314111200.
Thanks.
Peace.
