1.9.9 test failures on powerpc-apple-darwin8

1.9.9 test failures on powerpc-apple-darwin8

[-- Attachment #1: Type: TEXT/PLAIN, Size: 18463 bytes --]

Hi all,

I've built the latest guile-1.9.9 on powerpc-apple-darwin8 and got the 
following test results (test-ffi fail, regexp test fail):

I configured with:
configured by ../configure, generated by GNU Autoconf 2.65,
   with options "'--prefix=/sw' '--infodir=/sw/share/info' 
'--program-transform-name=s|guile|guile-2.0|g' '--without-threads' '-C' 
'CPPFLAGS=-Dmacosx'"

--without-threads because the lack of thread-cancellation on darwin8 
causes threads tests to fail.

Fang

Hi David,

Thanks for your report!

Can you check whether this patch fixes it?

  http://git.sv.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=guile.git;a=commitdiff;h=a2c6904911577b51c2486ad7115a4311524d4a96

I stumbled upon this bug with bindings for a C function with arguments
(list '* size_t '*) where the first pointer got mangled before it was
passed to the C function.  We were “lucky” that none of the tests in
‘test-ffi’ uncovered it.

We’ve seen similar problems on Darwin 9.2.2:

  http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnulib/2010-02/msg00061.html

Could you please email ‘bug-gnulib@gnu.org’ with a reference to this
thread and additional data regarding the behavior of getaddrinfo(3) on
this platform?  (I don’t have access to this platform.)

I don’t remember seeing it before.

What does this return on your machine:

  $ locale -a | grep 8859.*1

Thanks,

Will get around to this separately.
