  • Clang gives a few more details:

    KQueue.xs:71:5: warning: format string is not a string literal (potentially insecure)
        Newxz(ke, max_events, struct kevent);
        ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    /System/Library/Perl/5.10.0/darwin-thread- multi-2level/CORE/handy.h:776:28: note: instantiated from:
    #define Newxz(v,n,t)    (v = (MEM_WRAP_CHECK_(n,t) MEM_LOG_ALLOC(n,t,(t*)safecalloc((n),sizeof(t)))))
                         

    • Never mind... It's just a buggette in the perl that ships with SL...

      MEM_WRAP_CHECK_1 is defined as:

      #define MEM_WRAP_CHECK_1(n,t,a) \
          (void)(sizeof(t) > 1 && ((MEM_SIZE)(n)+0.0) > MEM_SIZE_MAX/sizeof(t) && (Perl_croak_nocontext(a),0))

      Fix is to change it to:

      #define MEM_WRAP_CHECK_1(n,t,a) \
          (void)(sizeof(t) > 1 && ((MEM_SIZE)(n)+0.0) > MEM_SIZE_MAX/sizeof(t) && (Perl_croak_nocontext("%s",(a)),0))
