>Description:
I'm running FBSD 7.1-p2 and inn-2.4.5 with largefile support and ovdb overview in a jail without any difficulties sofar.
       
The recent Perl-upgrade to 5.8.9 crashes innd (core dump) at start-up, reproducible. I did re-compile all ports including inn, same result.

Then I removed Perl support during configuration, re-compiled, and now innd starts and runs as expected.

(see <49720F74.5020304 at queue.to> on freebsd-ports at freebsd.org for another system crashing after perl upgrade)
>How-To-Repeat:
Upgrade to perl 5.8.9 and restart innd
