Description

Hello.

I think something must have changed in ruby recently in regards to how
case/when menus are handled. I am using svn checkout of ruby today.

I can trigger strange bug events that appear to be semi-random:


NODE_OP_CDECL
NODE_ARGS_AUX
NODE_SCOPE
NODE_STR
NODE_ARGS

The above errors appear to happen randomly. I should note that this is
a really HUGE case/when menu. I even split it up into separate .rb files
because I used to get "out of memory" errors with ruby. :D

With the stable "ruby 2.4.2p198" I do not get the above, semi-random
errors, so I am quite sure that something may have changed since then.

I removed the gem "beautiful_url" for the time being, until I have
finished reworking it; then I will upload it again.

Before the above errors, I also had some more specific errors about
specific lines that appeared to be "wrong" to ruby 2.5.x - but ruby
2.4.x was fine with that.

The most confusing part is that I can randomly "trigger" different
results, upon invoking the above. Sometimes I just get a plain
SEGFAULT, and sometimes I seem to randomly get NODE_OP_CDECL or
NODE_ARGS_AUX or NODE_SCOPE or NODE_STR or NODE_ARGS. I have never
seen that behaviour before. :)

I am sorry to be unable to give more information right now. I will
continue to investigate but most time I spend with ruby 2.4.2 and
perhaps the above error may disappear in a while. (May be due to
errors in my own .rb files, but since ruby 2.4.2 does not exhibit
the above issue, I think it must be because something may have
changed in ruby 2.5.x).

I'll try to make this more reproducable if it keeps on appearing
in later svn-checkouts in some days / a few weeks perhaps. I test
upcoming ruby semi-regularly.

Thanks!
