Bug#1078152: libtickit-console-perl: FTBFS with Perl 5.40: Out of memory in perl:util:safesysmalloc

[Niko Tyni]

Package: libtickit-console-perl
Version: 0.12-1
Severity: important
User: debian-perl at lists.debian.org
Usertags: perl-5.40-transition

This package fails to build from source with Perl 5.40 (currently in
experimental.)

  t/05bind_key.t ..... 
  # Seeded srand with seed '20240804' from local date.
  ok 1 - Console-level key binding receives key
  ok 2 - Console-level key binding receives key with tab focused
  ok 3 - Tab-level key binding receives key
  ok 4 - Console-level key binding does not receive key with tab focused
  ok 5 - Removed tab-level key binding no longer receives key
  ok 6 - Console-level keybinding receives key again
  1..6
  ok
  Out of memory in perl:util:safesysmalloc
  # Tests were run but no plan was declared and done_testing() was not seen.
  # Looks like your test exited with 1 just after 1.
  t/06timestamp.t .... 
  # Seeded srand with seed '20240804' from local date.
  ok 1 - Display after tab->append_line with timestamp
  Dubious, test returned 1 (wstat 256, 0x100)
  All 1 subtests passed 
  t/99pod.t .......... 
  # Seeded srand with seed '20240804' from local date.
  1..2
  ok 1 - POD test for blib/lib/Tickit/Console.pm
  ok 2 - POD test for blib/lib/Tickit/Console/Tab.pm
  ok
  
  Test Summary Report
  -------------------
  t/06timestamp.t  (Wstat: 256 (exited 1) Tests: 1 Failed: 0)
    Non-zero exit status: 1
    Parse errors: No plan found in TAP output
  Files=8, Tests=48,  1 wallclock secs ( 0.03 usr  0.01 sys +  1.11 cusr  0.17 csys =  1.32 CPU)
  Result: FAIL
  
This seems to be quite deterministic on perl.debian.net, with five builds
failing the same way, on both perl_5.40.0~rc1-1 and perl_5.40.0-1.
