Description Nigel Kukard 2004-05-02 19:16:59 UTC
Description of problem:
I get "Floating point exception" when I compile
glibc-2.3.3_cvs-200404291129 with gcc 3.4.0, install it and run
practically anything which uses threads. I do not use fedora, i
downloaded cvs head using cvs and built it with the options in the
fedora src rpm.

compiling with linuxthreads works perfectly fine

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
n/a

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. install gcc 3.4.0
2. compile and install glibc cvs head as per above
3. try run say sendmail
  
Actual results:
Shutting down sendmail:                                    [  OK  ]
Starting sendmail: /etc/init.d/sendmail: line 4: 22997 Floating point
exception/usr/bin/newaliases >/dev/null 2>&1
/etc/init.d/sendmail: line 7: 22998 Floating point exceptionmakemap
hash /etc/mail/$i </etc/mail/$i
/etc/init.d/sendmail: line 7: 22999 Floating point exceptionmakemap
hash /etc/mail/$i </etc/mail/$i
/etc/init.d/sendmail: line 7: 23000 Floating point exceptionmakemap
hash /etc/mail/$i </etc/mail/$i
/etc/init.d/sendmail: line 7: 23001 Floating point exceptionmakemap
hash /etc/mail/$i </etc/mail/$i
                                                           [FAILED]

if you run anything using thread support, it returns "Floating Point
Exception"

Expected results:
it working? heh

Well, if you roll your own, you are on your own debugging what's wrong
as well, the report doesn't belong here, but on sources.redhat.com/bugzilla
and need to include more relevant details, such as gdb session where
it crashed with SIGFPE etc.
It certainly works for me.
