--- Begin Message ---Subject: tcl8.5: Tcl/Tk applications on powerpc crash on startup with out of stack space message Package: tcl8.5 Version: 8.5.9-2 Justification: renders package unusable Severity: grave Tags: upstream *** Please type your report below this line *** The tcl libraries now end up being built with -DTCL_STACK_GROWS_UP=1 on the cc command line, which causes the check for stack overflow to have the wrong polarity. Consequently, every Tcl and Tcl/Tk application exits immediately on startup with a message about being out of stack space. The configure test that causes this flag to be set works by running a small program that looks like this: int StackGrowsUp(int *parent) { int here; return (&here < parent); } int main (int argc, char *argv[]) { int foo; return StackGrowsUp(&foo); } What happens is that gcc now inlines the StackGrowsUp function, meaning that the result of the program depends only on how gcc's algorithm for assigning stack slots for local variables happens to lay out the stack. On powerpc with gcc-4.5.2 (Debian version 4:4.5.2-1), gcc allocates `here' above `foo', which makes it look like the stack grows up when in fact it grows down. This could happen on any architecture where gcc automatically inlines functions. It so happens that it doesn't on x86 at the moment and does on powerpc. -- System Information: Debian Release: wheezy/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (990, 'unstable') Architecture: powerpc (ppc64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.36-rc4+ (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_AU.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_AU.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages tcl8.5 depends on: ii libc6 2.11.2-11 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib tcl8.5 recommends no packages.
