Package: gawk
Version: 1:3.1.0-3
Severity: normal
This bug happens in mawk and gawk; I'm reporting this bug in both.
This happens when trying 'make menuconfig' on a bitkeeper linux-2.5
tree, after doing the 'get' by hand only on the files needed to build
lxdialog, scripts/Menuconfig, and arch/i386/config.in.
Using gdb on the core dump shows an extremly deep stack trace (over 1000
function calls). Both die with SIGSEGV.
I've reduced the testcase to the relevant lines. It still crashes the
same way.
