Comment 6 Ulrich Müller gentoo-dev 2016-12-18 11:07:07 UTC
Your log shows that the actual problem happens earlier, namely the emacs executable segfaults the first time it is executed:

Dumping under the name emacs
2432307 pure bytes used
Adding name emacs-23.4.1
test "X/sbin/paxctl" = X || /sbin/paxctl -zex emacs
ln -f emacs bootstrap-emacs
./emacs -q -batch -f list-load-path-shadows
Makefile:111: recipe for target 'emacs' failed
make[1]: [emacs] Segmentation fault (ignored)
make[1]: Leaving directory '/var/tmp/portage/app-editors/emacs-23.4-r14/work/emacs-23.4/src'

I cannot reproduce this, so I suspect it is another problem with the hardened kernel. We have a long history of this:
https://bugs.gentoo.org/buglist.cgi?quicksearch=ALL%20app-editors%2Femacs%20hardened&list_id=3380758

Does Emacs compile for you in a non-hardened setup?
Comment 7 Toralf Förster gentoo-dev 2016-12-18 12:16:08 UTC
(In reply to Ulrich Müller from comment #6)
it compiles fine in a lot of other tinderbox images w/ various different profiels/USE flag sets - almost unstable images however ( didn't tested stable too much) - so maybe already solved in unstable version ?
Comment 8 Ulrich Müller gentoo-dev 2016-12-18 14:07:09 UTC
(In reply to Toralf Förster from comment #7)

Well, slot 23 is quite old and we won't see any new releases.

We could mask app-editors/emacs:23 in hardened profiles. OTOH, if it works with most other USE flag combinations, I'm inclined to close this bug as WORKSFORME.
Comment 9 Toralf Förster gentoo-dev 2017-01-20 14:03:33 UTC
(In reply to Ulrich Müller from comment #8)
it happens today again at a hardened image (hardened-unstable_20170120-093433) so maybe I should mask it here for hardened images unconditionally ...

gdb output

Meanwhile I can reproduce the problem on a non-hardened system. I suspect that glibc-2.24 has triggered this.

gdb backtrace attached. Can you verify if this is the same for you?
Comment 11 Toralf Förster gentoo-dev 2017-02-18 09:32:30 UTC
(In reply to Ulrich Müller from comment #10)
maybe related to bug #608788 ?

> (In reply to Ulrich Müller from comment #10)

No, different issue. Most likely due to changes in memory allocation:
https://lwn.net/Articles/673724/

Maybe it's time to retire slot 23. Emacs 23.4 was released more than 5 years ago and the bit-rot keeps accumulating. Also backporting patches from newer versions is sometimes hard, because the build system has radically changed between Emacs 23 and 24.
Comment 13 Ulrich Müller gentoo-dev 2017-02-19 09:47:12 UTC
I have tested in a stable and in an unstable chroot, and with glibc-2.23-r3 and glibc-2.24-r1 for each (i.e., 4 combinations in total). emacs-23.4-r14 builds fine with 2.23 but fails with 2.24.
