ruby1.8: statusexplanation |
|
This is a threading bug. While applying gdb to the problem, I noticed that (a) the thing that was NULL was prot_tag and (b) prot_tag was fiddled with in some rb_thread_* functions, so I tried building with threading disabled, and it built fine (at least 'debian/rules build'; 'debian/rules binary' failed because Ruby/Tk doesn't work when Ruby is built without pthreads but Tk is built with pthreads).
Obviously this isn't actually a viable workaround due to the Ruby/Tk problem and the fact that building without pthreads almost certainly changes libruby's ABI, but it does indicate where to start looking. mono had a similar problem, and we worked around it for a while with something along the lines of:
#ifdef __powerpc__
#include <sched.h>
#endif
#ifdef __powerpc__
cpu_set_t cpuset;
CPU_ZERO(&cpuset);
CPU_SET(0, &cpuset);
sched_setaffinity(0, sizeof(cpuset), &cpuset);
#endif |

this is no more a blocker for beta release
