Re: [perl #56610] Perl 5.10.0 double-free bug with Regular Expressions

[perl #56610] Perl 5.10.0 double-free bug with Regular Expressions | Re:Extremely Urgent Please
Has anybody had a chance to look at this regression in 5.10.0? 
rt.perl.org classified it as low severity, but I'd say it's at least 
medium if not high.  It does not appear to be Linux specific.  The 
original example also mentioned HP-UX (although there it gives incorrect 
results instead of crashing).

The original example was fairly complicated, but I boiled it down to a 
simpler program here: 
http://rt.perl.org/rt3/Ticket/Display.html?id=56610#txn-439780

It uses only core modules.  If it does anything except print "ok" then 
you've found a bug.
