Recently I had a similar problem with perl5.8.8 on Cygwin.
I think I was running out of memory in a print statement.
It took me about three hours to figure out what the problem was. An error or warning would have helped. I am used to silly warnings about deep recursion. Running out of memory should rate at least a warning. I expect this problem to get worse as the limitations of 32 bit systems become increasingly confining. When I made a test program for exhausting memory, I got a helpful error message, "Out of Memory!" I have gotten the same helpful message when I ran out of memory due to a program bug. I think the problem of silent memory-induced process death is a problem only in certain scenarios.
It should work perfectly the first time! - toma
