From: Steven DOT Pemberton AT cwi DOT nl (Steven Pemberton) Subject: b18: cygwin_except_handler failure on deref NULL 30 Aug 1997 08:01:20 -0700 Approved: cygnus DOT gnu-win32 AT cygnus DOT com Distribution: cygnus Message-ID: Original-To: gnu-win32 AT cygnus DOT com Original-Sender: owner-gnu-win32 AT cygnus DOT com I have a program that generates limits.h and float.h. It is also an extremely good compiler tester. You can find it at: http://www.cwi.nl/~steven/enquire.html An earlier version is part of the gcc distribution and apparently was used to generate the float.h include file of b18. Compiling and running it with b18 causes a run-time failure (and bash hangs) with the message: (ENQUIRE.EXE 1011) In cygwin_except_handler I don't know what the 1011 refers to, but if it's a line number, that is not where it failed. It failed at the point where the program looks to see if dereferencing NULL causes a trap (which is done using setjmp, and dereferencing NULL).
