Description

Reported to the dev mailing list by Ivan Bodunov:

"Hi,

After I wrote my filter in JavaScript I decided to rewrite it in Erlang and
faced some problems.
Even the simplest possible filter written in Erlang causes crashes in
CouchDB.

Filter is
"filters": { "foo": "fun(

{Doc}

,Req) -> true end." }

Command to trigger the filter is

1. curl -X GET http://localhost:5984/mytemp/_changes?filter=erl/foo

Following link contains the crash report:

CouchDB 0.11 on Mac.
