Subject: perl: Benchmark.t loops infinitely catting times(2)

Hi,

I got a problem with compiling perl under gcc 4.6.1.  On x86_64 system
Benchmark.t test 'perl' process loops forever.  strace -p show:

...
times({tms_utime=578, tms_stime=37407, tms_cutime=0, tms_cstime=0}) = 383961800
times({tms_utime=578, tms_stime=37407, tms_cutime=0, tms_cstime=0}) = 383961800
times({tms_utime=578, tms_stime=37407, tms_cutime=0, tms_cstime=0}) = 383961800
times({tms_utime=578, tms_stime=37407, tms_cutime=0, tms_cstime=0}) = 383961801
times({tms_utime=578, tms_stime=37407, tms_cutime=0, tms_cstime=0}) = 383961801
times({tms_utime=578, tms_stime=37407, tms_cutime=0, tms_cstime=0}) = 383961801
times({tms_utime=578, tms_stime=37407, tms_cutime=0, tms_cstime=0}) = 383961801
times({tms_utime=578, tms_stime=37407, tms_cutime=0, tms_cstime=0}) = 383961801
...

On i386 the test is passed in reasonable amount of time.  I've found a
similar problem:

Any ideas?


Thanks,
