The segfault bug is trigger by calling a text parsing function (from a standard perl module, Text::Parsewords) with particulary large input.
It's a regexp that's in Text::Parsewords which chokes because the default stack size on most systems isn't sufficient for it. I've seen it crash one time, then when run after tweaking the stack size with ulimit, it doesn't crash. Oh well. Intellectual curiosity satisfied, time to move on.
Jim was talking with me recently about actually designating something a stable version... This seems like one more big reason to stop calling 0.99.2 the stable version. How about it Jim? Call mon-1-1-0pre2 Mon 1.1 and cut a release?
Well, I like the release numbering convention that the Linux kernel uses, where the first number to the right of the decimal point signifies a stable release if it is an even number, or a development release if it is an odd number. I think we should just fork the cvs tree and call mon-1-1-0pre2 the super fantabulous "mon 1.2" (tag it as mon-1-2-0), then the head will be 1.3, the work-in-progress, possibly unstable, possibly stable, experimental-feature-laden code. _______________________________________________ mon mailing list mon@linux.kernel.org http://linux.kernel.org/mailman/listinfo/mon
