Hi Anto,
Not sure to understand: do you get a crash even now that you merged default?
yes, that's the case.
If this is the case, do you get it even with a trunk version of pypy? You don't have to translate it by yourself, you can just download one of the nightly builds: http://buildbot.pypy.org/nightly/trunk/
With pypy-c-jit-44414-19bf70a7d70c-linux.tar.bz2, I get no crash. Could it be as silly as having a buggy gcc or other tool used underneath when building? My local gcc is 4.4.1, whereas the above pypy build is 4.4.3.
./pypy-c --jit enable_opts=intbounds:rewrite:virtualize:string:heap:ffi:unroll
the line above is equivalent of a plain pypy-c, because it enables all optimizations. Try to remove some of them and see if you still get the crash.
Okay, that sounds like something I can try, but it'll take a bit to run through some of the possible combinations. Thanks, Wim -- WLavrijsen@lbl.gov -- +1 (510) 486 6411 -- www.lavrijsen.net
