Did you build with latest toolchain? I suspect the issue has appeared with toolchain changes (hard to pin down when because there was quite a period in which a new version of guile-2.0 was not uploaded). And the bug (a segfault when texi documentation is built with the recently built guild executable) looks to be present elsewhere too (take a look at #941218 where comment #10 seen on Ubuntu looks suspiciously like what we see on Alpha assuming it occurs at the same place). > Michael -- I've got the following ".deb" packages available, and you're > welcome to them if they would be of any help getting us unstuck: Unless built in clean chroot with only the build dependencies installed and with an up to date toolchain they won't be much use to us.
