Turns out the problem was a UniFreeUconvObject(NULL) call that would crash on the 2nd call for some reason. It should've been a UniFreeLocalObject so there was a tiny leak as well. weird.

  • Ticket #155 – Description

    initial v1  
    1 The perl lib/locale.t failes on the {{{setlocale(LC_ALL, "ar_dz.arabic8.UTF-8")}}} call. Creating the UConv object causes a crash in UCONV.DLL. Trying the abc game I find that it starts crashing with {{{setlocale(LC_ALL, "ar_dz.abcdefghij")}}}. The crash is a buffer overflow / heap corruption of some kind. So, setlocale should probably refuse passing anything to UConv which will trigger this problem.
