Maybe pwd/getcwd/getwd has a problem with chrooted trees ? My problem started about 4 days ago. I've done almost a dozen of ``make release''s recently, but the last two of them were totally hosed due to make aborting while building some lib, due to a sigsegv. Since my kernel hasn't changed between the `make' runs that were okay and those that fell over, i suspect something in userland, perhaps the memory allocator. The `make' that's in the regular tree doesn't have the problem, unlike for the guy who started a ``make world''. (Remember, ``make release'' does a full CVS checkout, so the chrooted tree is the lates and greatest bits.) -- cheers, J"org joerg_wunsch@uriah.heep.sax.de -- http://www.sax.de/~joerg/ -- NIC: JW11-RIPE Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
