| Subject: | DIE handler in testlib.pl doesn't ignore dies inside evals |
There have been lots of test failures on Win32. This is mainly because
the call to fork() in t/testlib.pl actually does an eval {} internally
and triggers an exception within the eval call. But t/testlib.pl
includes a __DIE__ signal handler that doesn't ignore dies that come
from within an eval call, so the normally harmless eval {} test within
fork kills the test.
One way you can prevent this is to check if $^S is true in the __DIE__
handler, which means the call cam from within an eval. A possible
solution that fixes the issue on Win32 is attached.
