| Subject: | make test gives "Bad free() ignored (PERL_CORE)" |
On cygwin's Perl, "make test" issues several warnings about "Bad free() ignore (PERL_CORE)". See test.out for the output of "make test".
The tests successfully complete, but I think this error does cause *other* Perl scripts to dump core. At least, other scripts will (sometimes) issue this warning a few times, and then dump core. (I haven't reduced the problem yet.)
