Description Dimitri 2003-05-14 00:29:21 UTC 
Description of problem:
xmgrace 5.1.12 (and earlier) crashes if compiled with gcc

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
gcc 2.96, RedHat for Advanced workstations 2.1

How reproducible:
After double-click on x- or y-axis, xmgrace crashes if compiled with gcc
If xmgrace is compiled with Intel's ecc, it works fine

Additional info:
Debugging output from gdb follows 
(point #6 of "where" varied, I include all different outputs I got)

[ xmgrace -sync datafile ]
(gdb)

Comment 1 Vladimir Makarov 2004-10-04 22:42:27 UTC 
Sorry, gcc-2.96 is too old.  Its release cycle was finished long ago.
 Therefore I am closing the case.  If it is still important, the
customer could reopen it.
