[gentoo-dev] emacs segfaults

[gentoo-dev] emacs segfaults

[Burton Samograd]

I just did an update and now for some reason my emacs is segfaulting at 
startup.  I've tried unmerging it and installing different versions with 
no luck.  And, as luck would have it, the xemacs build script seems to have
problems too.

Here's an strace of emacs starting up:

Any ideas on what's happenning here?  I just emerged xfree yesterday (i was console only

Give it a try without -funroll-loops.
it appears that  mkennedy and carpaski came to the conclusion that this
was the bad flag today. 

not much, but it might help.

I tried that and it didn't seem to make any difference...any other ideas?

Could you paste an output of 

gdb emacs

...
..
.
signal 11
where

and an output of ldd emacs

I had also segfault at startup:
Fatal error (11).Segmentation fault

Recompiled it with -O2 and now it runs.

This is being discussed in the bug db, 
http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5816
I just posted a workaround you might want to give a try.

[Burton Samograd]

I've tried a number of things (changing optimizations, USE variables, changed the ebuild, etc) 
many different ways, but nothing seems to work :-/  The whole problem started after I 
installed X, so I don't know if that has anything to do with it.  I think i might just do a manual
build myself from the distribution source tarballs to see if the ebuild is doing something 
wierd that might be causing some problems.  Of course it could just be another damn gcc 3.1 
bug (should have never switched) which seem to be cropping up left right and center on my 
machine...

As mentioned on http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5816 it's a
problem with sandbox and glibc.

The work around is 

  FEATURES=-sandbox emerge emacs
