[svk-devel] 2.0-releng: Windows Crash during smerge

[Joshua Jensen]

I am having the following major issue in the 2.0-releng branch under 
Windows.  I ran an svk smerge, suffered a crash, and during the process 
got this:

Free to wrong pool 222bb0 not 32e7a68 at C:/Perl/site/lib/SVN/Core.pm 
line 417.

perl -v yields: This is perl, v5.8.8 built for MSWin32-x86-multi-thread. 
Binary build 819 [267479] provided by ActiveState.

 From IRC:

pjcj: smells like a core bug to do with threading, but I didn't think 
svk did threads -- is that right clkao?
clkao: right. and your perl threadness and apache (apr actually) 
threadness must not hate each other.  but i think everyone is using that 
perl on win32...
pjcj: I know there's been lots of p5p talk about threads recently, and 
some about memory pools too, I think, but I've not really been following

It leaves the mirror locked.  The commit to svn from svk smerge does 
occur.  It does the "Merge back committed as revision 1176", Syncing, 
Retrieving log information, Committed revision 11, and then the Free to 
wrong pool message

The libs are the latest versions posted on subversion.tigris.org.

I've done this twice now from two clean Perl installations.  Most 
packages come from PPM, although a couple are retrieved from CPAN and 
built during the makefile process.

Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks,
Josh
