Hi all,

I wanted to upgrade to 2.55 and ran into the following problem:
compiling works fine, but when the tests are executed (make test) 
the machine just silently crashes completely up to the point where even
Ctrl-Alt-Delete does not work any more. 
This happens as soon as the tests for spamd are executed (before that,
I can see spamd's start message appearing in the syslog).

I tried it several times, upgraded all the prerequisite perl modules to
their current version, but  it did not help. 

Now I wonder 
 - can I skip building and testing spamd altogether (how would I do that) ?
 - is the system crash a symptom of a severe compatibility issue with
spamassassin
  and this specific system  (perl version, gcc, kernel )  so that even when
I skip building
  spamd I would have to expect random crashes when mail comes in that
matches similar
 conditions to those used in the spamd tests ?

The system in question has:
- kernel 2.2.14  (old SuSE)
- perl 5.005_03 (SuSE package) 
- gcc  2.95.2 (SuSE package from same distribution as perl)
and since it is an old legacy system on an internal network with lots of
different apps
neither kernel, gcc or perl upgrades are feasible in this case.

Any ideas ?

Regards,
Ulrich
