Re: [ooc-compiler] Segmentation fault during installation

[Stewart G. <sgr...@ii...>]

Hi Jan,

Two suggestions:

1) Try running the executable that fails under gdb. That should 
indicate the context in which the problem occurs.

2) Recent versions of the GC seem to default to building threaded 
collectors. On some platforms it is necessary to specify particular 
flags when compiling the _client_ code. If you have a threaded GC, you 
will probably have to specify "-DGC_LINUX_THREADS" in CPPFLAGS, or 
something like that. I don't know about Linux, but this is certainly 
necessary under Windows and Mac OS X (see README.{MACOS,WIN32} for 
discussion). Omitting the client flags can cause things to go horribly 
wrong.

Cheers,
   Stewart
