On macOS we are ok - no segmentation error or core dumping on Rexx -o

We do not have Fedora 44 so cannot check exactly your setting but on the Fedora43 VM build machine we have no issues with this. Also during the test before the last release there was no such thing as a core dump on Fedora (or any other platform). I am guessing a configuration error on your Fedora.

Syntax is "rexx [-o[d] "options"] filename [arguments]"
or "rexx -e program_string [arguments]"
or "rexx -v".

I updated trunk, made and installed new rpm.
All is OK now.
Sorry for the bogus report.
Can be closed.
