The Changelog is pretty much done now. Unless someone one else wishes to delay Pike 7.4 I'll do a version bump and we'll build binary packages with Pike 7.4.6. If that works out all right for all essential platforms we'll make a release tomorrow. Mkay?
M'kay.

I'd like to fix the Irix builds and have installation of autodoc.xml first.

Is it done today? I don't mind getting these fixes into 7.4, but they shouldn't stop a release in my opinion. I do like someone to have a look at Stenssons core dump that he gets when trying to run the hello world alert program on pelix. It would be bad if people trying out Pike for the first time found that the second example in our own tutorial dumps core.

That's more than likely due to pelix running GTK 2, which is not supported by the GTK module in 7.4 (I have patched the pike on pelix to somewhat support it...)
It would be bad if people trying out Pike for the first time found that the second example in our own tutorial dumps core.
It's unlikely that people trying out Pike for the first time will be running with my patches, since they are not committed or published.

That is my hunch as well. But the gdb backtrace showed a malloc error in an lfun call, so it isn't obviously the case.

Hm, so there are significant differences between the GTK support in 7.4 and 7.5 in this regard? Wow, rapid divergence...

No. The GTK support in 7.4 and 7.5 are currently identical.

Except that 7.5 works and 7.4 dumps core. :-)
Oh well, I suppose whoever compiled /pike/sw/bin/pike (7.4) didn't use the same compilation options I used when I compiled 7.5.

No, the 7.4 _that is installed in /pike/sw/pike on pelix_ dumps core, since it is linked against GTK 2 with my patches. Which I don't believe the 7.5 you tested was.

Why hasn't there been a pikefarm dist built since yesterday at noon? Your xml.c backport and version bump were certainly after that.

My apologies. I did some tuning and forgot to change databases there. *fixes*
