Hi again,
my quick test with 5.15.8 I have mentioned in my previous post was
probably too quick (I wrongly set up 64bit build), here are updated results:
1/ tests results for 32bit-gcc
- crash (segfault in UNIX words) in re/reg_eval_scope.t
- crash (segfault in UNIX words) in op/fork.t
- tests hang up in
../cpan/CPANPLUS-Dist-Build/t/02_CPANPLUS-Dist-Build.t
The crashes are "new" the hang up I have already experienced with 5.14.x

and
2/ tests results for 64bit-gcc
- crashes (more than one) in re/reg_eval_scope.t
- crash in op/fork.t
- some strange error during op/taint.t (maybe something broken on
my Win7 box)
- one failed test in ../ext/Pod-Html/t/cache.t
3/ pointer-to-int and int-to-pointer casting warnings with 64bit-gcc
"Only" approx 60 occurrences in the following files:
- pp_pack.c (3x)
- RealPPPort.xs (1x)
- POSIX.xs (1x)
- Socket.xs (7x)
- Storable.xs (more than 40)
4/ in order to have NDBM_File + ODBM_File in strawberry perl we need
these two extra files in perl core tarball:
ext/NDBM_File/hints/MSWin32.pl
ext/ODBM_File/hints/MSWin32.pl
mentioned in my RT https://rt.perl.org/rt3/Ticket/Display.html?id=71680
(please consider including them in 5.16.0)
