Sorry to be the repeat bearer of bad news about the threads branch, but ...
In recent weeks I have had access to a Darwin/Intel box -- not my
beloved and ancient Mac OS X 10.4 running Darwin/PPC. When testing the
threads branch on this box, I get failures in two files in which I have
not previously (or, at least, recently) gotten failures. The failures
occur consistently in t/src/extend.t and intermittently (sigh) in
t/src/embed.t.
I. t/src/extend.t: Test 19 fails
# Failed test 'multiple Parrot_interp_new/Parrot_x_exit cycles'
# at t/src/extend.t line 727.
# Exited with error code: [SIGNAL 6]
# Received:
# Starting interp 1
# Destroying interp 1
# Starting interp 2
# Destroying interp 2
#
# Expected:
# Starting interp 1
# Destroying interp 1
# Starting interp 2
# Destroying interp 2
#
# Looks like you failed 1 test of 19.
t/src/extend.t ......... Dubious, test returned 1 (wstat 256, 0x100)
II. t/src/embed.t:
# Failed test 'Minimal embed, create multiple interps without giving
1st interp to Parrot_interp_new '
# at t/src/embed.t line 113.
# Exited with error code: [SIGNAL 6]
# Received:
# Done
# Really done
#
# Expected:
# Done
# Really done
#
Looks like you failed 1 test of 13.
t/src/embed.t .......... Dubious, test returned 1 (wstat 256, 0x100)
Failed 1/13 subtests
(less 1 skipped subtest: 11 okay)
Between config/init/defaults.pm and config/init/hints/darwin.pm, our
default build settings for Darwin are (correct me if I'm wrong):
--cc=gcc --link=g++ --ld=g++
As time would permit, I tried both these settings and "all-gcc" and
"all-g++" builds. t/src/extend.t failed all three ways. t/src/embed.t
did *not* fail all three ways, but unfortunately I didn't have time to
note down all the combinations.
I know that there are other contributors who work on Darwin/Intel, so
perhaps we can get more data.
Thank you very much.
