This looks like a stack overflow. Apparently, the upstream developers don’t in general consider stack overflows to be a bug: <http://bugs.exim.org/show_bug.cgi?id=797>

However, the documentation says that “PCRE runs noticeably more slowly when built in this way”. -- Segfault on pcregrep -M '(.|\n)*' /dev/zero https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/329243 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
