Eric,
Can you please update your git repo at git://repo.or.cz/libsigsegv/ericb.git
to latest libsigsegv-2.7 so that I can roll a 2.7+
Or should I rather ignore 2.7 totally? I see no cygwin relevant
changes in 2.7 at all.
Bruno did not include your cygwin fixes for the SEH chain corruption into 2=
.7.

Bruno,
Can we please have eric's cygwin fixes in a next update somewhen?

To: cygwin-announce AT cygwin DOT com


I've promoted the experimental libsigsegv 2.6+-1 to current.
I need it for the upcoming clisp release, though I got no feedback yet
upstream if Eric' fixes will be eventually in the next release 2.7.

Eric Blake fixed the SEH chain corruption in libsigsegv for 2.6+.
The DLL revision is bumped from 0 to 1, so you can now change your
requires to libsigsegv1.
libsigsegv0 contains the old sources.

See http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2009-07/msg00881.html for the problems fixe=
d.

It's a small library for handling page faults in user mode.
A page fault occurs when a program tries to access to a region of memory
(heap or stack) that is currently not available.
It is mainly required for clisp for generational garbage collection,
m4 also uses for stack overflow protection.
