Package: ruby1.8
Version: 1.8.4-5
Severity: important

I have a large project for which Debian is my major development
platform.  This weekend I upgraded to 1.8.4-5 (from 1.8.4-1, apparently)
and suddenly my code is segfaulting.  I cannot track down where the
segfault is occurring, at least partially because it seems to move
around depending on debug statements I create.

I just downgraded to 1.8.4-1 and I no longer get segfaults.

You can check my code out at http://reductivelabs.com/svn/puppet/trunk,
then run the failing test:

cd test/
./test client

I got consistent segfaults, although where the segfault occurred varied
dramatically, and sometimes I was able to reduce it to just a "negative
allocation size" error.
