Re: [bug-gawk] make check fails on AIX - FYI

[Aharon Robbins]

Hi Michael.

1. Version of gawk you're trying to compile?  It should be 4.1.3.

2. Compiler you used? GCC or AIX compiler?

Please try the following

        make clean
        edit the Makefile to remove any -O flags and add -g in CFLAGS
        recompile
        make check

3. Do the problems go away when compiled without optimization?  If so,
   compiler bug, report to your compiler vendor and/or try a different
   compiler.

4. If not, please produce stack traces from GDB for the two failing cases
   and send them to me.

Thanks,

Arnold
