Running apt-get with the newly compiled libstdc++6 with
--without-cloog/--without-ppl still cause the segfault.

The glibc locale() function is causing this failure.

The segfault happens when basic_ios is being initialized. The
ios_base::_M_init() calls locale() to create a locale object and
stores this into _M_ios_locale. The assignment is done through an
operator= for the locale type, and this crashes.

Starting program: /usr/bin/apt-get

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

This is the 14th call to std::locale::operator=, but the first call
with an object that was created on the stack.

The object *this a std::locale object, has an invalid _M_impl member,
whose value should be a pointer to an implementation but instead it's
a value of 0x8.

This happens because the original locale object was created at address
0xbff01c20. However, when apt-get calls "std::basic_ios<char,
std::char_traits<char> >::init" it passes in the address 0xbff01c18.
So we went from a constructor using this as 0xbff01c20, to eventually
passing this as 0xbff01c18 to a template. The pointer to the
std::ios_base object is now off by 8 bytes and this causes the crash.

What happened here? Why does ReadConfigFile() think that the object is
in a different location?

Any hints on how to track this down?

Cheers,
Carlos.
