I've noticed that installs of 7.9 after commit acab7b82dc have started generating a large number of module dumping failures. Also, I have code that segfaults on startup starting with the same commit. The code is somewhat complicated, so I've not been able to boil it down to a simple test (yet).
I'm not sure the gdb backtrace will be of much help, but I'll include it here.
Any suggestions?
