Hello

Found another one. In builds of blead using the MinGW-W64 toolchain for x86_64, with long doubles enabled, calls to modfl() will segfault the perl interpreter. This is not a perlbug, the below C test crashes (segfaults) in the call to modfl()​:

--- modftest.c

#include <tgmath.h>
#include <stdio.h>

int main() {
  long double a, b, c;
  a = 1.76;
  __mingw_printf("About to call modfl(1.76, &b)\n");
  c = modfl(a, &b);
  __mingw_printf("Alive. b = %Le, c = %Le\n", b, c);
  return 0;
}

__END__

However, as a result, ext\POSIX\t\math.t *crashes* after test 28​:

../ext/POSIX/t/math.t (Wstat​: 65280 Tests​: 28 Failed​: 0)
  Non-zero exit status​: 255
  Parse errors​: No plan found in TAP output

This has been open upstream for about a year. There is a patch in the upstream ticket, which I have bumped. You can find the ticket here​:

@tonycoz are you saying this is resolved?

It's fixed upstream in https://sourceforge.net/p/mingw-w64/mingw-w64/ci/9a2479858b3bb7df36a09c4472fa1adca7e84f19/

Closing.
