Description Ted Marshall 2011-01-25 21:18:40 UTC

On 1.18.2 (running on "Linux localhost.localdomain 2.6.16-1.2111_FC4smp #1 SMP Sat May 20 20:16:24 EDT 2006 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux"), running "make menuconfig", entering "Networking Utilities" and changing value of "ndb-client" (or any other value) causes an immediate SEGFAULT.

"make config" seems to work.

To Reproduce:

$ make defconfig
$ make menuconfig
Select "Networking Utilities" and press ENTER
Cursor is on "ndb-client", press "n".

I have now also tried 1.18.1 and 1.17.4 and these also give the same fault.  I am now assuming that this is a problem with my system, somehow.  Someone please try this and, assuming that you do not see the problem, close this ticket.

Fixed the problem by editing Makefile and changing HOSTCFLAGS from "-O2" to "-O0".  Chalking this up to a bug in the old gcc I'm running.

Sorry to bother everyone.
