Alpha: HEAD: Failure

From
"Larry Rosenman"
Date:
I just tried(!) to run the buildfarm script on a Alpha DS10L/NetBSD 2.0 box.

It died in make check.

I have a tarball of the last-logs, to which I added a backtrace from the
coredump(!).

It's at: http://www.lerctr.org/~ler/alphadeath.tar.gz

$ gtar tzvf alphadeath.tar.gz
drwxr-xr-x ler/users         0 2005-10-18 14:21 lastrun-logs

Would someone pull it down, and let me know how I can help fix it?

Thanks!

4mb will do.

This regression test is how ;-)

Come to think of it, I should add an entry to the "interpreting the
regession tests" doco about this.  Will do it in a bit.

What would you like me to set it to, and how do we make sure that the
buildfarm stuff 
Sets it appropriately?

Given that the failure was in infinite_recurse, I'm guessing the problem
is that the stack limit is less than our default expectation (4MB I think).
