[suse-amd64] pthread program put a core. why?

15 Mar 2004

      I made a pthread program, and executed after compiled it.
It was core dump At the last.

$> gcc -m64 loadtest.c -o loadtest -lpthread
$> ./loadtest
ret = 0
ret = 1
    :
  [snip]
    :
ret = 253
ret = 254
Segmentation fault (core dumped)

$> gdb ./loadtest ./core.11662

But, It is not core dump if it compile at -m32 option.

$> gcc -m32 loadtest.c -o loadtest -lpthread
$> ./loadtest
ret = 0
    :

    :
ret = 254
