FreeBSD Port: nagios-3.0.6

[Karl Friesen]

Hello,

I just to report that nagios-3.0.6 when build with the EMBEDDED_PERL 
option dies with a segmentation fault when perl-5.8.9 is installed.  It 
runs fine when run from the command line with the -v or -s options (to 
check the configs), but dies when one attempts to run "for real" in the 
foreground or as a daemon.

I built a version with debugging symbols and ran it under gdb and it 
said that there nagios received a segmentation fault from perl.  There 
was something in there about the perl taint check as well.

Unfortunately, I didn't save the exact message that I saw.  The software 
is in use on a production machine.  If you really need the exact 
message, I can take the machine out of service to reproduce the error, 
but I don't want to if I don't have to.

I saw one other report of this problem on the net

Sorry for the sketchy report,
