If anyone has any specific information as to the root cause of the libuuid bug, I'd appreciate if you can update the bug report here:
http://bugs.squeak.org/view.php?id=7358 I had previously tried to summarize as follows: > The bug exists in some versions of libuuid on some Linux distributions. > The workaround is to compile the plugin internal. The latest versions > of Unix VM have the plugin compiled internally, although some users may > still experience problems if they have a leftover external plugin from > a prior installation. But it's not clear if this is accurate given the recent reports here. In particular, if a precompiled Cog VM with the UUID plugin compiled internally leads to a crash, then the above is not a sufficient workaround (at least not on Cog). If we are seeing crashes on Cog with an internal UUID plugin, but not on the traditional VM with an internal UUID plugin, then I think I smell a pthread related issue.
