No, Chris... I do not understand this wonderfully PR-esque response. See, my understanding always was, the only possible reasons for a compiler to produce a non-starting executable are:
1. The code is buggy. 2. The compiler is buggy. 3. Both of the above. My question was, which is it? 19.02.2013 00:35, Kevin Oberman ???????(??): > Just for the record, is find that it works fine for me with gcc-4.6. > 9.1-STABLE on i386 system.

When > I built with 4.6, it builds and runs fine Yes, 4.6 is supposed to work and is supported by the office@ team. My question was about 4.2.1, which happens to be the base cc/c++ in 8.x and in 9.x as well, if world was built WITHOUT_CLANG. I too observe the 4.2.1-compiled office die at start-up -- the splash screen starts nicely and exits after kicking off the actual soffice.bin which segfaults. -mi _______________________________________________ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-stable-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
