Re: Changing window size via bind -x may cause bash to hang in futex() call
I've noticed that this problem does no longer occur if bash 4.2.8 is configured --with-bash-malloc. On my distribution (arch) bash is configured --without-bash-malloc by default. This is the configuration i use now (derived from the archlinux pkgbuild): ./configure --prefix=/usr --with-curses --enable-readline \ --with-bash-malloc --with-installed-readline \ --bindir=/bin --mandir=/usr/share/man --infodir=/usr/share/info
