I can confirm that `-O3` option is what causes an error; the emerge finishes fine with `-O2`. Probably a GCC issue.

Yup, with -O2 it works. Should this bug be closed or marked as a GCC one? (There seem to be lots of -Ox related GCC bugs reported on bugzilla.)

Pretty much the same here.  Not necesarily a gcc bug though. The crash happens in scheme_apply which does a lot of error-prone stuff. This could easily be a buffer-overflow that only shows with optimization enabled.

[Comment 5 Dror Levin (RETIRED) 2009-01-25 08:06:28 UTC]

There's no package named dev-scheme/drscheme, which is why I couldn't find this bug (was it renamed?). Please change the summary :)

BTW, the segfault still occurs with the latest version - 4.1.4.

[Comment 6 Marijn Schouten (RETIRED) 2009-01-26 11:18:01 UTC]

yes, it was renamed. The segfault is different, but I'm guessing it's again because of -O3. I'll talk to upstream about it and am open to suggestions.

I confirm this bug and behavior for -march=amdfam10

[Comment 8 Dror Levin (RETIRED) 2009-03-22 21:55:02 UTC]

Still happens in 4.1.5 (fail with -O3, win with -O2).

[Comment 9 Marijn Schouten (RETIRED) 2009-06-04 15:37:26 UTC]

I spoke to upstream and I think they fixed this in 4.2.
Can someone confirm that please?

Fixed in 4.2, I confirm.

Thanks.
