Re: Random fork failures
I will appreciate any advice, how can I solve this problem.
Simple, self-contained testcases, preferredly in plain C, or simple
scripts in case the problem only occurs in a script language, which
allow to reproduce the problem. Those would be most helpful.

Example 1:
#!/usr/bin/perl
use POSIX qw(getcwd);
getcwd();
1;
Example 2:
#!/usr/bin/perl
use Scalar::Util qw(looks_like_number);
looks_like_number("1");
1;
Both end up with:
Segmentation fault (core dumped)
