Hi,
when trying to start syslog-ng on gabrielli.debian.org I see the following
error:
root@gabrielli:/var/lib/syslog-ng# /etc/init.d/syslog-ng start
[....] Starting system logging: syslog-ngeventfd2: Invalid argument
failed!
root@gabrielli:/var/lib/syslog-ng#
I then can see syslog-ng master-process spawining childs, which segfault
immidiatly:
http://paste.debian.net/239439/
If I run with ulimit -c unlimited i get a core file with the following
backtrace:
root@gabrielli:/var/lib/syslog-ng# gdb syslog-ng core

With a bit of help from #-devel:
03/03/13 [01:11:27] < algernon> if the eventfd2 is the real problem, there's a
patch for that, and is fixed in unstable already. the patch should apply fine
to wheezy too, though.
03/03/13 [01:12:58] < algernon> it is pretty esoteric. I've only ever seen it
before on a weird, half-rhel/half-ubuntu system
03/03/13 [01:21:14] < algernon> oh boy, this may be a combination of two bugs.
lovely.
03/03/13 [01:21:34] * algernon mumbles something about stupid bundled
libraries.
Build-depends for syslog-ng for wheezy are installed on host
gabrielli.debian.org in the wheezy chroot.
Cheers,
Martin

Version: 3.3.9-1
3.3.9-1 was compiled against the stock ivykis library, instead of the
embedded copy 3.3.5 carried. The problem has been fixed in ivykis, thus
3.3.9-1 does not have this problem anymore. (Neither should 3.3.6-*, but
still).
