Looking more at GC_clear_stack_segment(), it doesn't allocate nearly enough stack space to run out with only 10 or so calls, at least not for a normal-sized stack. Is a stack limit set when running the Racket program? The `limit' value shown in gdb seems to be clearly out of bounds --- in the space used by heap allocation --- but I don't see how it could go so wrong. Maybe gdb isn't reporting that variable's value accurately? Were any other threads running? That is, could some thread other than the main thread be the one that crashed? _________________________________________________ For list-related administrative tasks: http://lists.racket-lang.org/listinfo/users
