Hi, and thanks for the bug report. This is likely a another manifestation of: http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=4313 Where the address-space mapped in for 64 bit process in Frysk was short of the full address-space of a process. On X86_64, the vDSO, which is a required and non-elided segment for corefiles, is mapped right at the very end of the address space. Due to this short mapping, buffer underflows were occurring on x86_64 corefiles. This has been fixed upstream; I'll take another look at x86_64 to make sure there is no regression. If not, this bug will be picked up on the next FC6 Frysk refresh.
Based on the date this bug was created, it appears to have been reported against rawhide during the development of a Fedora release that is no longer maintained. In order to refocus our efforts as a project we are flagging all of the open bugs for releases which are no longer maintained. If this bug remains in NEEDINFO thirty (30) days from now, we will automatically close it. If you can reproduce this bug in a maintained Fedora version (7, 8, or rawhide), please change this bug to the respective version and change the status to ASSIGNED. (If you're unable to change the bug's version or status, add a comment to the bug and someone will change it for you.) Thanks for your help, and we apologize again that we haven't handled these issues to this point. The process we're following is outlined here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/F9CleanUp We will be following the process here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping to ensure this doesn't happen again.
