Indeed. I didn't see any -g options anywhere. A difference may be that I am compiling inside the pkgsrc framework, which has wrappers for all sorts of commands (most importantly the compiler). The idea there is that configure and the compiler etc. only see the packages that were declared as requirements (for accurate dependency tracking). It does that mainly by keeping the normal include directories out of sight, instead relying on a private include directory which has symlinks for only the allowed header files. The same when linking with libraries. You could see an example of a translated and original command line in my original mail, I think, to give an impression. That sort of thing tends to make debugging a bit more difficult... > My pan Makefile has CFLAGS = -g -O2 by default, with no intervention from > me. (This is on x86 linux.) I'll see what happens if I keep pkgsrc out of the loop, the result may well be different (or at least easier to manipulate ;-) (a bit later) Indeed, now I do get those options too. And now that I'm running this debugging version, the crash does not occur anymore. And having foolishly destroyed the crashing file, I'll have to come back later when I have something useful to report... -Olaf. -- ___ Olaf 'Rhialto' Seibert -- You author it, and I'll reader it. \X/ rhialto/at/xs4all.nl -- Cetero censeo "authored" delendum esse. _______________________________________________ Pan-users mailing list Pan-users@nongnu.org http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/pan-users
