Subject: crash on SIGINT(2)
Date: Tue, 21 Jan 2014 12:48:37 -0800 (PST)

From: Mihai Hanor <mhanor [...] yahoo.com>
Hello, I can easily reproduce a crash using a simple script (see the attached file, script.pl), when I try to interrupt its execution, by pressing CTRL+C. It doesn't always crash, but most of the times, it does. I'm attaching a minidump of the crashed process. Perl version:  Strawberry Perl 5.18.2.1 64 bit (perl 5, version 18, subversion 2 (v5.18.2) built for MSWin32-x64-multi-thread) Host: Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit SP1, 8GB RAM, i3 2120 I can also reproduce a similar crash with ActiveState's ActivePerl 64 bit. I've moved to Strawberry Perl because of this crash, without positive results, as it seems. I'm not sure if I should report this issue elsewhere.

I am afraid that this how perl on Windows behaves. Yes, it seems like a bug but it would be better to report this issue to perl core developers via perlbug or ask about this behaviour in perl5porters mailing list - http://lists.perl.org/list/perl5-porters.html -- kmx
