Re: please try the latest snapshot
I am encountering sporadic segmentation faults from tools like ls and
find. Specifically, I was invoking find as a child process from Cygwin
XEmacs, and it was getting a segmentation fault at different locations
in my (somewhat deep) directory structure.
After this started to occur, I started an rxvt window and when to the
top of the directory structure and did an 'ls'. This also caused a
segmentation fault.
This does not happen all the time, even for that directory. Reverting
back to 1.3.17 corrected the problem.
I will be happy to provide any additional information if instructions
for collecting the information is provided.
