- | Interstingly, and possibly connected, is what I get when I try to print
- | out some simple tracing commands using printf. Note that I segment fault
- | if I do the gethostbyname call, and then use printf, even if I exit immediately after the printf call:
-
- Your test program works fine for me, -O, and -g, on 3 different
- machines, with 3 different OS's and development releases...
-
- That is whether the gethostbyname succeeds or fails (I tried
- both).
