Hi, I am using Ruby 1.8.6 (2008-08-11 patchlevel 287) on FreeBSD 7.0- RELEASE-p7. I have some code that -among other things- parses XML files and when it does in at least one case, it dumps core with the following error msg: -x-x-x- /usr/local/lib/ruby/1.8/rexml/parent.rb:19: [BUG] object allocation during garbage collection phase ruby 1.8.6 (2008-08-11) [i386-freebsd7] -x-x-x- At times, I get a different error msg: -x-x-x- /usr/local/lib/ruby/1.8/rexml/namespace.rb:16: [BUG] object allocation during garbage collection phase ruby 1.8.6 (2008-08-11) [i386-freebsd7] -x-x-x- I initially developed my code using Ruby 1.8.6 patchlevel 111 on the same platform and everything worked as expected. And when I upgraded to the latest stable version from ports, I started having these issues. Staying with 1.8.6 patchlevel 111 is not an option since this version is riddled with security vulnerabilities. Any ideas on how to fix this problem? TIA. -- Saad Kadhi "It might look like I'm standing motionless, but I'm actively waiting for my problems to go away." Bob the Dinosaur, Dilbert.
