[New-bugs-announce] [issue14540] Crash in Modules/_ctypes/libffi/src/dlmalloc.c on ia64-hp-hpux11.31

[Paul A.]

New submission from Paul A. <pda at freeshell.org>:

The following stack trace happened towards the end of a Python-2.7.3rc2 build, but I also get much the same results with 2.7.2; one difference I noticed was I didn't think I needed to add -DHAVE_USR_INCLUDE_MALLOC_H there.
