Subject: [LONG] misc. patches against ocaml-2.02
Hi.
I ported O'Caml 2.02 to NetBSD/alpha 1.3.3 and OpenBSD/alpha 2.4
and in the process discovered a problem with Digital Unix 4.0D.
1.05 and 1.07 worked on 4.0A, but both 1.07 and 2.02 segfault:
cd stdlib; make COMPILER=../boot/ocamlc all
../boot/ocamlrun ../boot/ocamlc -g -nopervasives -c pervasives.mli
*** Segmentation fault - core dumped
That is the first call of ocamlrun, and it's the same symptom
described for gcc-2.7.2.1 on x86. I wasn't able to reproduce the
latter with gcc-2.7.2.1 on FreeBSD/x86 or SuSE Linux/x86 BTW.
I'm not sure whether it's a bug in DEC C, as the wording of the
standards isn't very clear regarding setjmp/sigsetjmp/longjmp/siglongjmp.
I'll report it in a DEC newsgroup anyway.
But the patch (making initial_local_roots volatile in interp.c)
shouldn't hurt and makes it quite clear to the compiler that it
can't be optimized away.
The casts in intern.c prevent undefined behavior. They probably don't
make a difference on most machines, but I patched it anyway while
searching for a bug, and Digital Unix 4.0D's cc.alt warned about
the shifts.
And finally there's another patch that makes LC_CTYPE work on
Digital Unix: LC_CTYPE can't be set to iso8859_1 but must be set
to <language>_<country>.ISO8859-1
patched file | NetBSD | OpenBSD | Dec Unix | misc.

It would be nice if these patches (or something to the same effect)
could make it into the next O'Caml release.
happy Caml'ing
