Re: [perl #132774] Segfault when accessing pad_compname_type

Not a bug.  pad_compname_type() is explicitly documented to refer to
the *currently-compiling* pad; it's not for the runtime pad.  Likewise,
PL_comppad_name is only documented to be meaningful during compilation.
Initialising PL_comppad_name during ordinary runtime would be a waste
of effort.  If you really want access to the pad names for the currently
executing sub, you can get there via CvPADLIST.
