[Comment 1 Marcus Comstedt 2012-11-24 12:22:16 UTC]

I confirm this issue.  It also happens on a 32-bit userland.

The problems seems to be triggered by having -maltivec in CXXFLAGS.  Line 29 of deref_impl.hpp looks like this:

                typedef typename Iterator::vector vector;

But when -maltivec is specified, it comes out of the preprocessor like this (verified with gcc -E):

                typedef typename Iterator::vector;

I don't know if this is a gcc bug or if the problem is with the headers, but I can get gcc to segfault by running "gcc -maltivec -E" on a file which contains just "vector vector", so it does smell a bit fishy in the gcc department...

(My gcc version is "Gentoo 4.5.4 p1.0 pie-0.4.7" by the way.)


Anyway, as a workaround to compile gnash, just remove -maltivec from CXXFLAGS. This needs to be done only for the directories libcore, libcore/parser, libcore/vm, gui, utilities, and extensions/dbus, which is where the boost vector class is used. -mabi=altivec should not be removed if present.  No changes to CFLAGS are needed.

It seems the workaround doesn't work in my system. I tried to compile libcore/vw   manually by removing -maltivec from CXXFLAGS in Makefile, but it still had the same problems.

[Comment 3 Marcus Comstedt 2012-12-02 15:18:19 UTC]

Created attachment 331198 [details, diff]
Workaround patch to be applied to dev-libs/boost to avoid the gcc bug.  Not a real fix.

[Comment 4 Marcus Comstedt 2012-12-02 15:21:09 UTC]

Well, as an alternative workaround, you could try to apply the patch I just attached to dev-lib/boost (unfortunately, that ebuild does not seem to support /etc/portage/patches, so it takes some fiddling).  That also fixes the problem for me.

Anyway, since the core issue seems to be a gcc bug, I have opened a separate bug (#445606) about that, and made it a blocker for this one.

[Comment 5 Chí-Thanh Christopher Nguyễn 2012-12-02 20:58:21 UTC]

So if I understand correctly, this is a bug in boost and not gnash (or gcc)?

[Comment 6 Marcus Comstedt 2012-12-02 21:46:00 UTC]

It is a gcc bug.  I found out that it has been fixed upstreams in the gcc 4.7 series (see http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=48226).

[Comment 7 Marcus Comstedt 2012-12-03 15:53:58 UTC]

And as I wrote in the other bug, putting the patch from the gcc bugzilla into /etc/portage/patches/sys-devel/gcc-4.5.4/ and re-emerging gcc fixes the problem.

Thank you. I followed your instructions and ememrged the gnash successfully. Maybe we could close this bug if the gcc-power7 patch is applied to gcc-4.5.4.

[Comment 9 Marcus Comstedt 2012-12-21 10:40:33 UTC]

Issue #445606 has now been resolved, so this issue can probably be closed as well.

[Comment 10 Chí-Thanh Christopher Nguyễn 2012-12-21 11:05:52 UTC]

In order to avoid duplicate reports, I will wait until next revision bump or stabilization (bug 418383) before closing.

[Comment 11 Chí-Thanh Christopher Nguyễn 2013-01-27 22:42:56 UTC]

gcc-4.6 is stable now
