Re: Bug in ecpg lib ?

   Hi Laurenz,

   I have now generate a rather small example where I experience the problem, attached. It is linked with the mudflapth library using the commands below. You may have to change the DBNAME and DBUSER. The delay just before the pthread_cancel(), i.e. sleep(10), is rather critical for the problem to appear and you might have to change it to something less. On some very slow machines I wasn't able to produce the problem.

$ ecpg crashex.pgc
$ /usr/local/Packages/gcc-4.4.0/bin/gcc -O0 -c  -fmudflap -fmudflapth -fomit-frame-pointer -B/usr/local/Packages/gcc-4.4.0/bin/ -Wwrite-strings -std=gnu89 -ggdb -fPIC -Wall -I/usr/local/Packages/pgsql/include  -I./Modules -I./ -o crashex.o crashex.c
$ /usr/local/Packages/gcc-4.4.0/bin/gcc -O0 -B/usr/local/Packages/gcc-4.4.0/bin/ -Wl -o crashex crashex.o  -L/usr/local/Packages/pgsql/lib -lecpg -lpq -lmudflapth -lpthread -ldl

   And this is the output from running the program:

leif$ LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/Packages/gcc-4.4.0/lib/ ./crashex

   As you might have noticed, this particular run is on a 64bit architecture (Ubuntu 8.04) and the crashex program is generated on a 32bit machine with gcc-4.4.0. I have tried with PostgreSQL version 8.3.5 and 8.3.7. All give the same result, though the specific program addresses of course might differ from system to system.

   Please help,

 Leif
