Subject: 'find_encoding("utf8")->decode(undef)' causes segmentation fault
The below code causes segmentation fault in my environment. perl -MEncode=find_encoding -e "find_encoding('utf8')->encode(undef)" Is this a bug ?

Yes it is :( Fortunately that happens when and only when undef is explicitly fed to (de|en)code. $a = undef; ->decode($a) works as expected. so does ->decode(''); Fixed in 2.36. If you can't wait, check CodeRepos/github. Dan the Encode Maintainer Show quoted text
