Strange Segfault with Apache::PerlRun

[Damon Buckwalter <da...@meta-x.net>]

When using Apache::PerlRun to try and run some CGI-ish scripts I noticed a
strange phenomenon.  If the shebang line in the script contains '-T', that
Apache child will segfault on requests to the script.  Combinations of '-w',
nothing in the shebang line and no shebang line at all work as expected.

Tracing httpd in gdb, it tells me that the segfault is occuring inside
fgets() in libc.  Perhaps a simple argument parsing problem?

This is on Apache 1.3.12 / mod_perl 1.24

I forgot to mention also that mod_perl is statically compiled into Apache,
and using Perl 5.6.0

i can't reproduce that.  can you post the complete gdb stacktrace?  what
version of Perl?
