#9053: BUG gmp: crash in config.guess due to mfpvr instruction ----------------------------------------+----------------------------------- Reporter: vincent-opdarw@… | Owner: gwright@… Type: defect | Status: assigned Priority: Low | Milestone: Port Bugs Component: ports | Version: 1.0 Resolution: | Keywords: Port: | ----------------------------------------+----------------------------------- Old description:
On my Power Mac G5, a crash occurs in config.guess, due to a generated code that contains the mfpvr instruction. This crash can be noticed (and is then annoying) when CrashReporter's developer mode has been enabled.
I think this can be fixed by trapping the corresponding signal (SIGILL?), but I can't currently try because my Mac is under repair.
