Good sleuthing so far.  Narrowing it down to the IDE is especially
useful, as it suggests something that may eventually affect standalones,
since of course the IDE is just a collection of stacks itself.

I'm not familiar with backtrace, but the output appears to be very
different from strace.  Have you run strace?  To get going I wouldn't
worry about flags, even the defaults would likely yield useful info.

What's the bug report ID for this?  Maybe the logs should be included as
attachments there.http://warren.ws/strace-LC-output.txt


Richard,

I never filed a bug report. I reported my problem in a reply to another release announcement fairly recently and didn't receive any comment from any of the devs that have been generously participating on this list so I (perhaps stupidly and/or unfairly) took that to mean there was little interest in tackling it. Linux is not anything like a single target and we've all seen the dreaded "we can't reproduce it here" response that has to be as frustrating to the devs as it is to those of us who have the problem :D I'm grateful for the interest you and Mark Wieder have shown. I'm not averse to filing or contributing to bug reports and will do so with your encouragement.

The strace output, run without any flags, is 2.4 MB and 27,000+ lines. It means nothing to me, dilettante that I am. You can find it here: <http://warren.ws/strace-LC-output.txt> If you can think of any flags which might make it more manageable or useful, I will be happy to run it again.

Warren
