our sub nesting and eval yields crash

Subject:
our sub nesting and eval yields crash
Message ID:
5.37.11_131689_1682302464@barba.rous.org

This is a bug report for perl from zefram@fysh.org,
generated with the help of perlbug 1.44 running under perl 5.37.11.


-----------------------------------------------------------------
<!--[Please describe your issue here]-->

```
$ perl -lwe 'our sub foo; 0 if sub { eval "" if 0; \&foo if 0; }'
zsh: segmentation fault  perl -lwe 
```

Necessary elements to get this crash\: named sub declared with \"our\"
\(rather than \"my\" or \"state\" or as a package sub\)\; closure sub
\(either anonymous sub or \"my\" sub\)\; string eval use compiled inside
closure sub\; reference to the named sub compiled inside closure sub\;
closure constructed at runtime\. Non\-requirements\: string eval
doesn\'t need to execute\; reference to the named sub doesn\'t need to
execute\; order of the string eval and sub reference doesn\'t matter\;
closure doesn\'t need to be called\.

Adding \"\-Mfeature\=lexical\_subs\"\, this crash occurs all the way
back to Perl 5\.17\.4 when lexical subs were first introduced\.
