Bug #67600 for Crypt-SSLeay: Crypt::SSLEay causes SIGSEGV when used with perl threads

I'm using the Frontier XMLRPC module with Perl 5.008 on CentOS 5.5. The Frontier module is connecting to a custom XMLRPC interface using HTTPS. Frontier can use either Crypt::SSLeay or IO::Socket::SSL. My code makes use of Perl threads. If the system has IO::Socket::SSL installed, it works as intended, 100% of the time. If I instead of Crypt::SSLeay installed, it fails with a SIGSEGV 100% of the time. If I run the code in a single thread, ie, disable all threading functions in my perl code, then it works fine with either module. This leads me to believe that Crypt::SSLeay has a problem with the Perl threads library (I'm using the built-in threading functions in PERL). I am running 0.57 of Crypt::SSLeay, from the RPMforge Extras distribution. If there is a way to recompile Crypt::SSLeay in such a way to make it "thread safe", please advise, as I can easily do that and repackage it for my purposes. Thanks in advance. ==================== Scott Stone <scott_stone@trendmicro.com> Lead Developer, DCS-RD Trend Micro, Inc. http://www.trendmicro.com TREND MICRO EMAIL NOTICE The information contained in this email and any attachments is confidential and may be subject to copyright or other intellectual property protection.
