Re: firefox52 core dump on RPI2 NetBSD9.1

[tlaronde%polynum.com@localhost]

Here what I have found:

1) There is no .strtab pb neither with a cross-ld or with the native ld
on earmv7hf using the test that was sufficient to exhibit the problem
before the fix of Aug 2019;

2) When installing firefox32, retrieving the package and all its
dependencies from NetBSD packages 9_0_2020Q3, firefox32 aborts on an
assertion:

Assertion failure: !joinable(), at
/scratch/work/www/firefox52/work/firefox-52.9.0esr/js/src/threading/Thread.h:122

This is for pkgsrc developers;

3) The .strtab warnings come from gdb and not ld. Is gdb using its own
BFD tree that is an old not corrected one? (This question will be moved
to tech-toolchain).

Best,
