> An application I've written that uses regular expressions to
> search for repetitive sequences in genomes sometimes segfaults.
> I've reproduced this on Linux and SunOS. The problem does not
> occur when perl 5.9.2 is used (installed separately in /opt/perl).
> A script containing the affected parts of the application is
> here:
> http://www.genomics.ceh.ac.uk/~milo/perl/testcode.pl
> This data causes the segfault:
> http://www.genomics.ceh.ac.uk/~milo/perl/fault_yes.fasta (2.7M)
> This data does not:
> http://www.genomics.ceh.ac.uk/~milo/perl/fault_no.fasta (2.6M)
> The problem may be connected to large numbers of "N" bases in
> the sequence. These should be ignored by the script, but have
> to be included in the sequence.
