We actually had another issue due to this particular libc bug: http://bugs.python.org/issue6059 Basically, the problem is that if some libraries are dynamically loaded in an interleaved way, the TLS can be returned uninitialized, hence the segfault upon access. This problem can show up now because the import orders for some modules have been modified: depending on the test that crashes - or rather the tests that run just before - you might be able to pinpoint it quickly (or you could maybe use "ltrace -e dlopen"). >> Apparently, Etch on ARM uses linuxthread instead of NPTL ... > > FYI you can also try to print sys.thread_info (which should give the same > information, "NPTL 2.7"). > > NPTL has know issues: see for example the Python issue #4970. NPTL is old and > has been replaced by pthread in the glibc on Linux. I think you're confusing with linuxthreads ;-) ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue12936> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
