Hi,
I've updated to the latest PAR today & find my compiled programs no longer
work.
I've done a system call trace on it and its just sitting there spinning on
the following system call
stat64("/tmp/par-ian.cass/temp-17949/Co6VkxN1zO", {st_mode=S_IFREG|0600,
st_size=18924, ...}) = 0
The file is there, so the stat does not fail.
-rw------- 1 ian.cass users 18924 Apr 27 10:09
/tmp/par-ian.cass/temp-17949/Co6VkxN1zO
If I look to see what it is, it's POSIX.pm.
This seems to be within the PAR loader, because my code never even starts.
I've gone back through the old releases to see when this behaviour started
to happen & I've found that PAR-0.79_97 works fine but PAR-0.79_99 is
broken. I've also tested PAR-0.80_99 and that too is broken.
I've not tested this against any of my other scripts - I've not had time, so
I don't know the extent of this problem. I've also not investigated a patch,
once again through lack of time. I'm going to go back to the last working
release for now. Let me know if you want me to do any more tests.
