attempt to mmap 2325622477335777280 bytes when printing utf8 in perl6

[mikegrb]

My apologies if this is a perl6 issue and not parrot but parrot told me to run parrotbug and I always do what a parrot tells me ;)

Attatched is the file generated by parrotbug, the description I've copied here for convenience.

Source of my script is:

#!/usr/bin/env perl6

use v6;

say "\c[DEGREE FAHRENHEIT]";

output from running the script:

perl6(75422) malloc: *** mmap(size=2325622477335777280) failed (error code=12)
*** error: can't allocate region
*** set a breakpoint in malloc_error_break to debug
Failed allocation of 2325622477335773507 bytes

We highly suggest you notify the Parrot team if you have not been working on
Parrot.  Use parrotbug (located in parrot's root directory) or send an
e-mail to parrot-dev@lists.parrot.org.
Include the entire text of this error message and the text of the script that
generated the error.  If you've made any modifications to Parrot, please
describe them as well.
