Hello,

We are starting to run PGSQL V7.1 on Solaris 7. It seems to work but
psql binary always ends with a SEGV.
Did somebody already see this problem?

psql test701

Welcome to psql, the PostgreSQL interactive terminal.

Type: \copyright for distribution terms
\h for help with SQL commands
\? for help on internal slash commands
\g or terminate with semicolon to execute query
\q to quit

test701=# \q
Segmentation fault (core dumped)

gdb get the following trace:

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
0xff363b68 in __do_global_dtors_aux () from
/usr/local/pgsql/lib/libpq.so.2
(gdb) where
#0 0xff363b68 in __do_global_dtors_aux () from
/usr/local/pgsql/lib/libpq.so.2
#1 0xff3728dc in _fini () from /usr/local/pgsql/lib/libpq.so.2

#4 0xff116814 in exit () from /usr/lib/libc.so.1

Thanks

Paul McGarry just reported in pgsql-bugs that updating to gcc 2.95.3
made a similar problem go away for him.

Re: psql always ends with a SEGV:

OK but we don't use this version as that command shows :
PROMPT> gcc -v
Reading specs from /usr/local/lib/gcc-lib/sparc-sun-solaris2.7/2.95.2/specs

gcc version 2.95.2 19991024 (release)

TIP 2: you can get off all lists at once with the unregister command
(send "unregister YourEmailAddressHere" to majordomo@postgresql.org)

Precisely. Try updating to 2.95.3 to see if the problem goes away.
