--- Comment #8 from Thiago Jung Bauermann <thiago.bauermann at linaro dot org> --- (In reply to Thiago Jung Bauermann from comment #6) > Looking at the begin.o file that is used by the test, the difference between > trunk and the reverted versions are: > > 1. .debug_str is empty in trunk but has 495 bytes in the reverted version. > 2.

It turned out I was comparing the reverted version with a slightly different trunk revision than I should. After correcting that, differences 2 and 3 vanished. There's only difference 1. > I left compress.exp running in a loop with the reverted version for more > than 1000 iterations and the test didn't fail once. So I still think the > bisection is correct. It occurred to me that I should also run compress.exp in a loop with the trunk version to check that the failures are stable so I did that, and they are. compress.exp failed with all 1600 iterations of the loop. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
