[cgiapp] Template and interpolation

[RA Jones <suppressed>]

I know it's been quiet on the CA list recently. So a Q to liven it up. 
This one was originally posted on the Templates mailing list but got no 
takers so I want to try again here (I only use TT via CA so it's sort-of 
relevant).

It concerns the Perl interpolate bug, but at a much smaller file size 
than the 32kb quoted value. Templates as small as 15 lines (1 -2 kb) are 
affected. I am assuming it is the same problem - browser pop-up alert 
says 'Document contains no data' and Apache error log reports '[notice] 
Parent: child process exited with status 3221225477 -- Restarting.' 
Problem goes away if I turn interpolate off.

Peppering the template with empty variables (ie $) allows the system to 
run OK under mod_perl, but is very irritating as TT works fine without 
this when run via CA (and stand-alone) as a standard CGI application.

Also I am using ActivePerl 5.8.6, and I thought this was a Perl 5.6 
regex file size limit problem. The rest of the setup is Apache/2.0.52 
(Win32) PHP/4.3.10 mod_ssl/2.0.52 OpenSSL/0.9.7e mod_perl/1.99_20-dev 
Perl/v5.8.6 (actually the Perl-5.8-win32-bin-0.9 binary by Randy Kobes). 
I think Template::Parser is implicated in this somewhere - I have v2.82, 
distributed as part of the Template Toolkit version 2.14, released on 04 
October 2004.

Does anyone know how to fix this, as variable interpolation is one of 
the reasons I use TT in place of HTML::Template.
