/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/KERNEL i386
>Description:
When FreeBSD world (and kernel) is built using clang, the resulting code
generated for vsnprintf in the library libc.so does not work properly, causing
a segmentation fault. The problem was discovered when attempting to use java on
FreeBSD.
>How-To-Repeat:
Compile and run the following C code on FreeBSD 9.0-STABLE built with clang:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
int main(int nargrs, const char* args[])
{
const char* msg="Hello World!";
int length=strlen(msg);
printf("length is %i\n",length);
char string0[256];
char string[256];
memset(string0,1,256);
strcpy(string0,msg);
vsnprintf(string+1,length,"%s",string0);
printf("%s\n",string);
return 0;
}
Alternatively, try launching java or javac from jdk16, diablo-jdk16 or openjdk6
