Don’t use strchr when scanning for newline after <<foo
The code that uses this is specifically for parsing <<foo inside a quote-like operator inside a string eval. This prints bar: eval "s//<<foo/e bar foo "; print $_ || $@; This prints Can't find string terminator blah blah blah: eval "s//<<foo/e #\0 bar foo "; print $_ || $@; Nulls in comments are allowed elsewhere. This prints bar: eval "\$_ = <<foo #\0 bar foo "; print $_ || $@; The problem with strchr is that it is specifically for scanning null- terminated strings. If embedded nulls are permitted (and should be in this case), memchr should be used. This code was added by 0244c3a403.
