% aptitude install perl-debug
% ulimit -c unlimited   (varies depending on your shell)
% debugperl /path/to/mysql.test
(core dumps)
% gdb debugperl core
(gdb) bt


1) keep the core dump somewhere handy for further debugging
2) cut+paste the output from the gdb backtrace into your bug report /
   slug email.

The backtrace will hopefully tell us what library call is at fault -
you will probably have to recompile the relevant library with
debugging symbols (and re-coredump) to get closer.
