i couldn't find out what the bug was but it was in the library's interaction with the VM environment and not in SH: for example, pcc also crashed when attempting to exec ape's 'diff'. acid's truss wasn't useful since it immediately faulted with: "invalid opcode 8c 24 d0 at eip 000130c3"
anyway, if you just recompile "ape" you will not see the problem, or at least that's what worked for me: % cd /sys/src/ape % mk nuke && mk install % uname uname: '/bin/uname' file does not exist % ape/psh $ uname -a Plan9 vx32 4 0 i386 $ you may want to do it from the init rc window before you have started rio: it crashed the VM with "9vx panic: sigsegv on cpu3" with amazing regularity. andrey On Tue, Sep 23, 2008 at 11:17 PM, Gary V.
