Hi Christoph, When you wrote to <bug-libsigsegv-antis...@antispam.gnu.org> you didn't remove the "antispam" words from the address.

Indeed at least the 'sigsegv1' test will fail in this situation. Have you reported the problem to the linux-kernel mailing list, or to the maintainers of the s390 part of Linux? > Forcing libsigsegv to use > POSIX signal handlers othewise makes a library that passes all the tests > apart from the exact fault location. That sounds promising, if the kernel problem was fixed. > Now I'm wondering of software depending on libsigsegv won't work on s390 > or maybe the correct page is still enough information for dependencies > like clisp to work -- in that case a "fix" would be rather easy. clisp (and probably other software too) will compile and work also when the installed <sigsegv.h> file does not define HAVE_SIGSEGV_RECOVERY or HAVE_STACK_OVERFLOW_RECOVERY. But the functionality will be a bit degraded. For clisp, it means that generational GC will not be compiled into clisp if HAVE_SIGSEGV_RECOVERY is not defined, and endless recursions may cause a crash if HAVE_STACK_OVERFLOW_RECOVERY is not defined.
