I'm trying to get CPAN or, preferably CPANPLUS working on a dual-CPU
FreeBSD 4.8 server (with plenty of free memory), and have ran into a
problem that I don't appear to resolve. Either of the utilities
experiences a core dump during it's operation:
Output from CPAN:

I've tried with numerous combinations of configuration options including "-j3" for CPANPLUS for dual CPUs, internal MALLOC for Perl, etc. On the parallel server with largely the same configuration (though FreeBSD 4.6.3) both CPAN and CPANPLUS work ok. The system that is experiencing problems with the utilities was recently upgraded from 4.7 to 4.8 as one of the attempts to resolve this problem, but it had no effect (Perl was recompiled afterwards; `make test' produced no errors). After CPANPLUS has been configured, `make test' yields the following result, ending in an error while probing dependencies: --- Skip blib/lib/CPANPLUS/Backend/RV.pm (unchanged) Skip blib/lib/CPANPLUS/Shell/Default.pm (unchanged) Skip blib/lib/CPANPLUS/Tools/Module.pm (unchanged) Skip blib/lib/CPANPLUS/Internals.pm (unchanged) Skip blib/lib/CPANPLUS/Tools/Load.pm (unchanged) Skip blib/lib/CPANPLUS.pm (unchanged) Skip blib/lib/CPANPLUS/Backend.pm (unchanged) Skip blib/lib/CPANPLUS/Styleguide.pod (unchanged) Skip blib/lib/CPANPLUS/Internals/Report.pm (unchanged) Skip blib/lib/CPANPLUS/I18N/CPANPLUS.pot (unchanged) Skip blib/lib/CPANPLUS/FAQ.pod (unchanged) cp lib/CPANPLUS/Config.pm blib/lib/CPANPLUS/Config.pm Skip blib/lib/CPANPLUS/Tools/Cmd.pm (unchanged) Skip blib/lib/CPANPLUS/Tools/Term.pm (unchanged) Skip blib/lib/CPANPLUS/Internals/Utils.pm (unchanged) Skip blib/lib/CPANPLUS/Shell.pm (unchanged) Skip blib/lib/CPANPLUS/Internals/Module.pm (unchanged) Skip blib/lib/CPANPLUS/Internals/Install.pm (unchanged) Skip blib/lib/CPANPLUS/Internals/Source.pm (unchanged) Skip blib/lib/CPANPLUS/Configure/Setup.pm (unchanged) Skip blib/lib/CPANPLUS/Internals/Fetch.pm (unchanged) Skip blib/lib/CPANPLUS/Internals/Module/Status.pm (unchanged) Skip blib/lib/CPANPLUS/Shell/Classic.pm (unchanged) Skip blib/lib/CPANPLUS/Tools/Check.pm (unchanged) Skip blib/lib/CPANPLUS/Configure.pm (unchanged) Skip blib/lib/CPANPLUS/Config.pm-orig (unchanged) Skip blib/lib/CPANPLUS/I18N.pm (unchanged) Skip blib/lib/CPANPLUS/Internals/Make.pm (unchanged) Skip blib/lib/CPANPLUS/Internals/Search.pm (unchanged) Skip blib/lib/CPANPLUS/Internals/Extract.pm (unchanged) Skip blib/lib/CPANPLUS/Internals/Author.pm (unchanged) Skip blib/lib/CPANPLUS/Internals/System.pm (unchanged) Skip blib/lib/CPANPLUS/Error.pm (unchanged) Skip blib/lib/CPANPLUS/TesterGuide.pod (unchanged) Skip blib/lib/CPANPLUS/I18N/fr.po (unchanged) /usr/local/bin/perl Makefile.PL --config=-skiptest,1,-prereqs,1,-do_once,1 --installdeps=File::RsyncP,0,CPANPLUS::Shell::Curses,0.02,CPANPLUS::Shell::Tk,0.02 *** Installing dependencies...

Any ideas as to what I could try next? Also, if this is not the right place to ask this question, please point me to the right direction. Thanks for any advice! Ville Walveranta
