OK, I debugged the new w3m/0.5.2 and discovered what the problem was.
It appears that it crashes if LANG is not defined
When function term.c:check_cygwin_console:239 is called and
the following is evaluated with environment variable LANG undefined:
if (strncmp(getenv("LANG"), "ja", 2) == 0) {
isWinConsole = TERM_CYGWIN_RESERVE_IME;
}
w3m crashes:
Setting LANG to any value prevents the crash.
Can w3m be changed so that it wont crash in this instance?
The previous version of w3m/0.5.1 doesn't crash if LANG is not set.
BTW, where, when and how does Cygwin set the LANG environment variable?
Thanks.
