This is a bug report for perl from jeremy@​feusi.co,
generated with the help of perlbug 1.40 running under perl 5.26.1.

-----------------------------------------------------------------
Perl segfaults when executing the attached program (perl <progname>) due to a null pointer dereference in Perl_pp_multiconcat.
This bug can also reproduced on archlinux and debian with standard installation configuration and version 5.26.1.

Looks like this has been fixed:

Ran out of time to dig deeper or bisect. Can do so at the weekend, unless someone wants to beat me to it.

    Avoid leak in multiconcat with overloading.

    RT #133789

    In the path taken through pp_multiconcat() when one or more args have
    side-effects such tieing or overloading, multiconcat has to decide
    whether to just return the result of all the concatting as-is, or to
    first assign it to an expression or variable if the op includes an
    implicit assign (such as $lex = x.y.z or $a[0] = x.y.z).

    The code was getting this right for those two cases, and was also
    getting it right for the append cases ($lex .= x.y.z and $a[0] .= x.y.z),
    which don't need assigns. But for the bare case (x.y.z) it was assigning
    to the op's targ as well as returning the value. Hence leaking a
    reference until destruction of the sub and its pad.

    This commit stops the assign in that last case.
