[New-bugs-announce] [issue12936] armv5tejl: random segfaults in getaddrinfo()

[Stefan Krah]

New submission from Stefan Krah <stefan-usenet at bytereef.org>:

I'm getting random segfaults in `make buildbottest` on qemu-debian-arm:

Linux-2.6.26-2-versatile-armv5tejl-with-debian-5.0.8 little-endian

The segfaults occurred in test_robotparser and test_nntplib and
couldn't be reproduced when running the tests separately.
qemu-debian-arm is horrendously slow, so I don't think I'll have
time to debug this. I'm submitting the report in case someone has
access to fast ARM hardware.
