Subject: [ruby-talk:24209] Possible bug in ||= assignment

Hi,

Try the following:

  false ||= anObject
  true  ||= anObject
  nil   ||= anObject

=> Segmentation fault

  5        ||= anObject
  1.2      ||= anObject 
  "string" ||= anObject
  [1,2]    ||= anObject

=> parse error


Happens in both 1.6.4 and 1.7.1.

Regards,

  Michael
