Subject: Re: Segfault with map operation on 1.8p5

Hello,

while reading the discussion about segfault in Array#map comes to my
mind that this couldn't be so rare segfault...

Please look at suspicious peaces of code. To name it - look at line 261,
and 1570 (in latest CVS). There are potencial segfaults.

While 841 is not a segfault, but could give a garbage like Qundef.

And 1438 could give Qnil...

I think that some king of locking needs to be used (like ARY_TMPLOCK).

I think that the other classes (not just Array) are affected like this
as well.

I hope I'm wrong so correct me, please!

	Michal


PS: I'm so sorry that I won't be able to respond back - I'm out of town
for a week... So please, CC me to stay in discussion.
