Hi,
on a very plain Linux i386 32bit setup, configured with clang, libobjc2
and ng-gnu-gnu runtime I always had issues with almost everything
crashing, this is months old (years?).
What happens is this:
Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
0xb757a078 in myGetC (c=<optimized out>) at NSScanner.m:91
91 (void)GSToUnicode(&dst, &size, &c, 1, internalEncoding, 0, 0);
Here a Trace.

For a long time I worked around this by removing optimization, the
minimum was this in base:
GSFormat.m_FILE_FILTER_OUT_FLAGS = -O%
Now... this hack stopped working for me, GNUstep is "broken".
In the meanwhile, I also updated the compiler. it is cloang 8.0.1, no
longer clang 6. I hope that if there was some strange compiler bug, it
should have been gone.
So I start fearing that we have some bad code, but it happens "only" in
this setup I have. Any suggestion?
