Subject: [ruby-core:60435] [ruby-trunk - Bug #9198] Segfault in TestException#test_machine_stackoverflow

Issue #9198 has been updated by Eric Wong.


 Interesting.  Can you poke the Red Hat glibc/kernel folks to see if the
 problem is specific to RH/Fedora systems?
 
 Regardless, the current method of getting the address of the main thread
 stack seems error prone and fragile on Linux.  Perhaps we should avoid
 pthread_getattr_np in the main thread.
