The issue is still here on blead (7e7bdfd).
The issue is not present in 5.26 branch.

It occurs with a toolchain using uClibc 1.0.30, but everything is OK when using glibc or musl.

Any editor with collapse/expand block capability will show you that blocks and conditional compilation are not properly balanced in the function `Perl__is_cur_LC_category_utf8`.
