Re: [Bug-apl] OpenBSD + GNU APL 1.8: Segfault immediately on apl startup

[Dr . Jürgen Sauermann]

Hi Brian, thanks for reporting this. It looks like something goes wrong in the order of initialization of static class members. Could you please change line 35 of file src/static_Objects to read: bool static_Objects::show_constructors = true; and recompile and run GNU APL again? It will crash again but the output before that is relevant (no stackdump needed). The segfault is somewhat obscure because cerr << endl fails, but this happens inside an assertion that should not trigger in the first place.

It builds ok, but segfaults immediately upon running the apl binary. There is a (unfortunately very large) gdb backtrace attached to this email. It seems to be a problem with the custom COUT/CERR handling but I'm not well-versed in GNU APL internals. Happy to test out any patches. ~Brian
