Hi,
the file docs/pdds/draft/pdd16_native_call.pod reads:

       3   A pointer to an int, taken from an P register of an int-like PMC.
           On return from NCI, the PMC_int_val will hold the new value.

This do not work, however:

Parrot VM: PANIC: vip3p is an unknown signature type.
CAN_BUILD_CALL_FRAMES is enabled, this should not happen!
C file src/nci.c, line 13653
Parrot file (not available), line (not available)

We highly suggest you notify the Parrot team if you have not been working on
Parrot.  Use parrotbug (located in parrot's root directory) or send an
e-mail to parrot-porters at perl.org.
Include the entire text of this error message and the text of the script that
generated the error.  If you've made any modifications to Parrot, please
describe them as well.

Dumping Core...

What should I do?
Should I create a ticket on trac?
Or should I try to investigate the problem further?

Thanks in advance for any advises on the matter,
Vadim.
