Subject:   linux djvu 1.1.2/1.1.5 plugin/viewer core dumps & clone
Message-ID:  <19981229032119.A603@top.worldcontrol.com>

I tried installing the 1.1.2 and 1.1.5 linux djvu plugins for
netscape, which also come with dejavu the viewer which is invoked
by the plugin.

I'm not particularly interested in dejavu the viewer or the plugin.
I was working with the command line compressor/decompressor.

However, I like to test things when I come accross them, so I
installed the plug-in/viewer on my -current, COMPAT_LINUX_THREADS
+ cmdline proc diffs system.

This system successfully runs so50 and the multi-threaded mpegtv
viewer.

dejavu calls clone and I'm guessing that in the new thread it invokes or
otherwise runs the djvu decompressor.  In this subsequent thead it
core dumps on signal 11.  The X window interface continues to run.

I've run ktrace and truss on the viewer and neither seem to follow
the new thead.

gdb doesn't report much that is interesting:

Core was generated by `dejavu'.
Program terminated with signal 11, Segmentation fault.
/usr/X11R6/lib/libXpm.so.4.8: No such file or directory.
#0  0x1 in ?? ()

Once again, I don't really care that the plugin/viewer doesn't work.

However, I thought the people working on the linux thread emulation
might be interested in another test case.

Lastly, I have the linux libraries installed from the so50 distribution.
