C program continues to crash when calling perl function newSVpv ()

Trying to use the perl data structure (partly as a way to support an associative array in C), but the following program continues to crash. It compiles fine, but there will be a crash on the line using newSVpv (). I do not know why.

#include <EXTERN.h>               /* from the Perl distribution     */
#include <perl.h>                 /* from the Perl distribution     */
static PerlInterpreter *my_perl;  /***    The Perl interpreter    ***/
int main(int argc, char **argv, char **env) {
    char *proto = "http";
    SV* ret = newSVpv("http", 4);
    sv_catpvn(ret, "://", 3);
    STRLEN len = 1;
    char *result = SvPV(ret, len);
    printf("result: %p %d\n", result, len);
    return 0;
}

The string to compile is -

gcc -g -o interp te1.c `perl -MExtUtils::Embed -e ccopts -e ldopts`

Perl I have 5.14.2 running on Ubuntu 12.04.4 LTS.

Thanks for any tips!

UPDATE: added gdb trace. Thanks for the question. gdb trace:
