The following test fails with segmentation fault:

#include <iostream>
#include <string>
#include <stdexcept>

static char long_string [4096] =

{'a'}

;

int main (void)
{
try

{ std::string s (long_string, 4095); s.replace (0, 1, "a", s.max_size () + 1); std::cout << "Expect length error, got nothing" << '\n'; }

catch (std::length_error& e)

{ std::cout << "Got expected length error" << '\n'; }

return 0;
}
