#1074: Abort occurs when install the rubygems. ----------------------------------+----------------------------------------- Reporter: watson1978@… | Owner: lsansonetti@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: blocker | Milestone: Component: MacRuby | Keywords: ----------------------------------+----------------------------------------- Comment(by justin@…): I've also been running into this malloc error in my own codebase, which makes heavy use of regular expressions. I have been trying to create an isolated piece of code to reproduce the problem but have been unable to so far. I have seen it occur with MacRuby 0.6, 0.7 and 0.8. Here is a stack trace from 0.6, looking very similar to Thread 2 of lsansonetti's comment above. This might rule out the bug being caused by recent changes...
