Created attachment 365757 [details] short example program that crashes ruby 1.8.6 in F11 and F12 beta Description of problem: The ruby interpreter crashes when executing code that refers to an unqualified constant name if this code is contained in some method that has been added to a particular object (either via "def obj.meth" or via a def from within a "class << obj"). Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 1.8.6 (under both F11 and F12 beta) How reproducible: Run the attached code. Actual results: The ruby interpreter segfaults at the first reference to a constant from within the "declare" method. Expected results: Programs, even those that contain syntactic or semantic errors, should execute without crashing the ruby interpreter. (This particular case works in ruby 1.8.5 on RHEL 5.4.)
