For those who want a simple example of the bug that this patch fixes here is a simple example: With blead perl this program should print out "foo", but does not. $ perl -le'my @a=("foo"); sub t {@{$_[0]}=(); print $_[1];} t(\@a,$a[0]);' With Dave's branch it behaves as expected: $ ./perl -le'my @a=("foo"); sub t {@{$_[0]}=(); print $_[1];} t(\@a,$a[0]);' foo cheers, yvesThread Previous | Thread Next
