No. Plain 'make /local/home/tinderbox/master/workdir/unxlngx6.pro/CppunitTest/sw_subsequent_ww8export.test' in sw/ randomly does or does not trigger the problem. The race condition is very likely in the execution. One thing that is special about those two tinderboxes is that they both have a relatively old gcc version, so I'd expect using any system with similarly old components might be useful for reproducing it. > Getting a backtrace with symbols would indeed help, I guess. Didn't help me. IIRC the crash is because a component somewhere is not loaded, leading to a NULL pointer dereference later. And the component is not loaded, because the GUID read for it from some OLE stream is rubbish. I got rather lost at that point and gave up in the hope somebody else would fix it. -- Lubos Lunak l.lu...@suse.cz _______________________________________________ LibreOffice mailing list LibreOffice@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice
