Hello & Happy New Year!

I've recently switched from openSUSE 42.3 (perl 5.18.2 & git 2.13.7) to
the openSUSE Tumbleweed (perl 5.28.1 & git 2.20.1) and send-email
doesn't work for me anymore.

FWIW it doesn't seem like a git regression. I've manually installed
2.13.7 in my new OS and it also fails.

It basically fails with the:
Warning: unable to close filehandle __ANONIO__ properly: Bad file descriptor at /usr/lib/git/git-send-email line 812.
Warning: unable to close filehandle __ANONIO__ properly: Bad file descriptor at /usr/lib/git/git-send-email line 812.
error: git-send-email died of signal 11

Relevant perl source:
    802  sub ask {
    803          my ($prompt, %arg) = @_;
    804          my $valid_re = $arg{valid_re};
    805          my $default = $arg{default};
    806          my $confirm_only = $arg{confirm_only};
    807          my $resp;
    808          my $i = 0;
    809          return defined $default ? $default : undef
    810                  unless defined $term->IN and defined fileno($term->IN) and
    811                         defined $term->OUT and defined fileno($term->OUT);
    812          while ($i++ < 10) {
    813                  $resp = $term->readline($prompt);
    814                  if (!defined $resp) { # EOF
    815                          print "\n";
    816                          return defined $default ? $default : undef;
    817                  }
    818                  if ($resp eq '' and defined $default) {
    819                          return $default;
    820                  }
    821                  if (!defined $valid_re or $resp =~ /$valid_re/) {
    822                          return $resp;
    823                  }
    824                  if ($confirm_only) {
    825                          my $yesno = $term->readline(
    826                                  # TRANSLATORS: please keep [y/N] as is.
    827                                  sprintf(__("Are you sure you want to use <%s> [y/N]? "), $resp));
    828                          if (defined $yesno && $yesno =~ /y/i) {
    829                                  return $resp;
    830                          }
    831                  }
    832          }
    833          return;
    834  }

It seems that the "return defined" line causes warnings.

I don't know perl but I tried patching /usr/lib/git/git-send-email with
the attached diff and got a following output:

Warning: unable to close filehandle __ANONIO__ properly: Bad file descriptor at /usr/lib/git/git-send-email line 812.
Warning: unable to close filehandle __ANONIO__ properly: Bad file descriptor at /usr/lib/git/git-send-email line 812.
term: Term::ReadLine=HASH(0x56138dd97c50)
*** buffer overflow detected ***: /usr/bin/perl terminated
error: git-send-email died of signal 6

It makes me suspect that maybe readline() call causes a crash.

Does this report make sense? Is there anything else I can provide?
