clone 450703 -1 reassign -1 gcl retitle -1 gcl: crash after ctrl-C thanks recipe:
(1) start gcl (2) hit <ctrl-C> and then <enter> causes a crash (shown below). Since maxima is built from gcl (and building maxima against clisp seems to not have these problems), it seems likely that this is a gcl bug. I get the same "out of memory allocating N bytes after a total of M bytes" error frequently when trying to use maxima via Sage's pexpect interface, so I suspect that this is a relatively easy to reproduce instance of a more serious problem with gcl's memory management. (Cloning the bug rather than just reassigning, since once it is fixed is gcl, Maxima will need a rebuild to fix it bug there). -Tim Abbott [tabb...@coset ~$] gcl GCL (GNU Common Lisp) 2.6.7 CLtL1 Sep 1 2008 14:01:57 Source License: LGPL(gcl,gmp), GPL(unexec,bfd,xgcl) Binary License: GPL due to GPL'ed components: (XGCL READLINE BFD UNEXEC) Modifications of this banner must retain notice of a compatible license Dedicated to the memory of W.
