394840 - crash when compile and start on MIPS

Status: RESOLVED INCOMPLETE

(Firefox :: General, defect)

Description

[D. Shveenkov]

User-Agent:       Opera/9.10 (Windows NT 5.2; U; ru)
Build Identifier: firefox-2.0.0.4

Then I compile the source code of firefox (OS Linux for MIPS) compiler gcc-3.2.3 print unresolved symbols during link.
I apply patch for file xptcstubs_asm_mips.s.m4 (from bug id: 250472). Source code Successful build.

compile flags and command:
export MOZILLA_OFFICIAL=1
export BUILD_OFFICIAL=1
export PATH=/tools/usr/bin:$PATH
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/tools/usr/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
export LD_RUN_PATH=/tools/usr/lib:$LD_RUN_PATH
export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/tools/usr/lib/pkgconfig:/usr/lib/pkgconfig
export LDFLAGS=-L/tools/usr/lib
export CPPFLAGS=-I/tools/usr/include

./configure \
  --prefix=/usr \
  --exec-prefix=/usr \
  --sysconfdir=/etc \
  --localstatedir=/var \
  --x-includes=/usr/X11R6/include/X11 \
  --x-libraries=/usr/X11R6/lib \
  --with-x \
  --with-system-jpeg \
  --with-system-zlib \
  --with-system-png \
  --with-gtk-prefix=/tools/usr \
  --with-gtk-exec-prefix=/tools/usr \
  --with-libIDL-prefix=/tools/usr \
  --with-libIDL-exec-prefix=/tools/usr \
  --with-glib-prefix=/tools/usr \
  --with-glib-exec-prefix=/tools/usr \
  --enable-svg \
  --enable-default-toolkit=gtk2 \
  --enable-application=browser \
  --enable-cpp-rtti \
  --enable-cpp-exceptions \
|| exit 1

make || exit 2

make install || exit 3 

Then I run the browser, signal SIGSEGV terminate the program.

Hope for help...

Did you see bug 250472 comment 7?  See also bug 258429.

Maybe you can get a better stack if you use a debug build?
Just add --enable-debug to the config, run configure, rebuild the entire tree.
