Segmentation fault sometimes when sbcl tries to load start-swank.lisp

gzqx opened this issue a year ago · comments

Thank you for maintaining this wonderful project!

Recently I noticed that sometimes (roughly 30% of times) when starting the swank server, it fails. There are also cases that it works first and fails during usage. Then I noticed that sometimes simple running

sbcl --load "/home/<username>/.vim/bundle/slimv/slime/start-swank.lisp"

Will lead to

[1]    11875 segmentation fault (core dumped)  sbcl --load "/home/<username>/.vim/bundle/slimv/slime/start-swank.lisp"

My version is SBCL 2.0.1-8.fc36 on Fedora Plamsa 38.

This seems to be a bug in that SBCL version, or maybe a Fedora issue, at least I found this page that describes the same issue:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/sbcl/+bug/1989715

I don't think it is related to slimv/swank.
