Subject: [PATCH 1/2] idx_stack: avoid conditional hash assignment weirdness
Date: Mon,  1 Nov 2021 19:06:08 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20211101190609.32278-2-e@80x24.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20211101190609.32278-1-e@80x24.org>

I've been seeing the following error on occasion during "make check-run":
$PWD/t/data-gen/reindex-time-range.v1-master index failed: Modification of a read-only value attempted at $DIR/lib/PublicInbox/SearchIdx.pm line 899, <$r> line 1.

Perhaps this fixes it.  In any case, a construct of:

	 $h->{k} //= do { $h->{x} = ...; $val };

seems wrong and may cause Perl to error out depending on how
hashes are randomized.
