Description
This ticket moves into the Trac system discussion of an issue previously found in the RT system as RT #49258. In that ticket, Bob Rogers provided test file pbc.t which is here attached.
Running that test file in the original RT, Bob posted this output:
The attached test case will illustrate the problem (but be sure to check that $PATH does not contain "." first): rogers@rgrjr> perl pbc.t 1..1 not ok 1 - .const of null string # Failed test (pbc.t at line 18) # got: '' # expected: 'ok # ' # Looks like you failed 1 test of 1. rogers@rgrjr> PATH=".:$PATH" perl pbc.t 1..1 ok 1 - .const of null string rogers@rgrjr> I think the right thing would be to mangle $exe_f to start with "./", but I don't know how to do that portably.
Re-running it today, I got a failure -- but different output:

gdb had this to say:
