Description John Richard Moser 2005-01-09 10:33:44 UTC

The upstream maintainer says this is a bug in guile, and supplies some data that may be helpful.  Stack smash protection is set off by this, so it's horribly broken and doesn't work at all.

Comment 1 John Richard Moser 2005-01-09 12:18:06 UTC

The glame author has attached a patch to the bug tracker given in the original bug.  I'd test it, but I'm having trouble compiling guile, a la #73920.  Going with guile 1.6.7 as recommended.


Oddly after this I can't reproduce the bug.  I haven't tested the patch to glame, though it may still deserve a look; it may have been a bug triggering a guile bug, or something.  *shrug*  I'm not a source code auditor.

Upstream closed the bug as INVALID, we shall do the same.

Please re-open when this issue can be re-produced.
