    small code tweak in Perl_gv_init
    
    (follow-up to previous commit, fix for #76540)

M       gv.c

commit e5c69c9b913b1a7f8a83beabb60e96958df29689
Author: David Mitchell <[email protected]>
Date:   Sat Jul 24 15:41:19 2010 +0100

    [perl #76540] "print CONSTANT," gives double-free
    
    gv_init() has name and len args, but newCONSTSUB() (which it calls)
    doesn't have a len arg, so any trailing garbage in name gets used by
    newCONSTSUB.
    
    In the test case, this means that we end up attaching the const CV
    to both the "FOO" and qq{FOO, "\\n";\n} GVs. So it gets freed twice.
