Summary: Python 2.3.3 make test core dump on HP-UX11i
Initial Comment:
I built Python-2.3.3 on HP-UX11i in the same way that I
built Python-2.3.2.
However, this time running 'make test' core dumps on
the second pass with:
test_sax
*** Termination signal 138
Stop.
The output from test_sax.py is given below. Each test
appears to fail, but the summary gives zero failures (this
also happens with Python 2.3.2, but 'make test' doesn't
core dump on that release).

I don't think I will do anything about this anytime soon, so
unassigning myself.

I think I remember hearing something about an
incompatibility. The two best people to discuss this are
probably Martin v. Loewis and Fred Drake. I'm assigning to
Martin, perhaps he can shed some more light on the issues.

I have now installed Python-2.3.3 plus PyXML-0.8.3 and the
core dump in 'make test' has returned.
So, it looks like a compatability problem with PyXML-0.8.3 ?

This is the configure command I used:
base_inst_dir=/opt
python_link=${base_inst_dir}/python
CC=cc \
OPT="+O2 -z +Onofltacc +ESlit +Oentrysched \
+Odataprefetch +Onolimit +DA2.0" \
INSTALL="./install-sh -c" \
./configure --with-threads --without-gcc \
--with-cxx=/opt/aCC/bin/aCC --without-libd \
--with-cycle-gc --prefix=$python_link \
--exec-prefix=$python_link
This is exactly the same command I have used on previous
Python 2.3 releases which did not core dump in 'make test'.
Note it uses the native HP compiler.
I have now just rebuilt without optimisation, using:
CC=cc \
INSTALL="./install-sh -c" \
./configure --with-threads --without-gcc \
--with-cxx=/opt/aCC/bin/aCC --without-libd \
--with-cycle-gc --prefix=$python_link \
--exec-prefix=$python_link
It still core dumps at the same point in the second pass
of 'make test'.
I have attached a stack trace from the core file. I noticed
that this has references to /opt/python/lib/python2.3/site-
packages/_xmlplus/parsers/pyexpat.sl. This is the previous
installation of Python 2.3.2 plus PyXML-0.8.3.
I wondered if I had forgotten to reset $PYTHONPATH before
running 'make test', so I did that and tried again but it still
core dumped.
So next I reset the symbolic link /opt/python to the empty
directory /opt/python-2.3.3 and ran 'make test' again. This
time it didn't core dump!
So why does the test suite access the previous installation
when PYTHONPATH doesn't include it?

On an HP box I tried, I don't have any problems.
* HP-UX taylor B.11.00 A 9000/829
* gcc 3.2
What compiler are you using? Have you tried on the HP test
drive machines? Are you compiling with optimization?
