Hi Sebastian,
thanks for reporting this. Is is OK to ask a few questions as I've never
seen this before on a wide range of kit that I test this on.
1. Is this failure repeatable? (I'm not sure how it occurs since there
is a SIGSEGV handler for these cases).
2. Does it fail on specific machines?
3. What CPU model is the machine it fails on?
I've tried to understand this failure, but so far I'm quite perplexed by
it, so maybe it's a CPU specific caching behavior that I have misunderstood.
Any assistance with the questions above would be most useful,
Regards,
Colin
