riscv32 wait() problem, qemu or glibc?

[Andreas K . Hüttel]

Hi, 

first of all, sorry for crossposting, but I'm dealing with many moving and 
experimental parts here... 

Situation: riscv32 (ilp32) qemu-user [1] chroot, Linux [2], glibc [3], gcc [4]

The following small program outputs "child exited with status 40", which is 
rather unexpected (it should be 42). Any idea what is going on?

(This is a simplified version of code in a configure test. The test has other 
potential issues [5], but in any case it cant produce useful results on 
riscv32 right now.)

TIA, 
Andreas

====================================
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <sys/wait.h>

main(c, v)
     int c;
     char **v;
{
  pid_t pid, p;
  int s, i, n;

  s = 0;
  pid = fork();
  if (pid == 0)
    exit (42);

  /* wait for the process */
  p = wait(&s);
  if (p != pid)
    exit (255);

  if (WIFEXITED(s))
  {
     int r=WEXITSTATUS(s);
     printf("child exited with status %i\n",r);
  }
}
====================================
