[Wikitech-l] Jenkins tests exiting with error code 139

2013-01-16 Thread Antoine Musso
Hello,

For some weeks now, the PHPUnit tests for MediaWiki core have been
randomly failing with an 'exit code 139' error. I did not bother
investigating it caused I had no clue about what would cause it and it
happened mostly in the 1.21wmf7 branch, not master.


The mighty Tim Starling found out the root cause which is due to a bug
in PHP. Tim applied a workaround to our PHPUnit installation to avoid
the segfaulting code path.

If you have any patchset blocked by the exit code 139, you can reattempt
a merge of it by revoting CR+2 or sending a rebased patchset.


Our bug (with MediaWiki backtraces)

cheers,
