That seemed to cause some crashing on my machine when running `make test`. The attached patch seems to fix it. Kenny, could you take a look and see if it looks ok to you? kennykb added on 2005-07-18 22:17:32: Logged In: YES

I'm not sure where Mo reaches the conclusion that
this is related to the asm code. The (incomplete)
config.log does indeed include some checks for
SEH and EXCEPTION_DISPOSITION, but those
tests appear to have given normal results.
Rather, the location of the crash appears
to implicate TkWinGetDrawableDC. (It does NOT
help that the DrWatson disassembly has messed
up - for instance, the target of the 'jnz' at 0x41bd32
is not 42485b, but rather 41bd5b.
It looks as if there's a null pointer being passed
for the Drawable in TkWinGetDrawableDC.
The stack trace back from there is:
Tk_3DVerticalBevel
Tk_Draw3DRectangle
TkCreateFrame
and the event loop.
This should really be refiled as a Tk bug, but assigning
to Jeff for now.

I have downloaded and compiled Tcl 8.4.11 and tested them with mingw_msys 6 and I did not see any crashes on WinXP. The submitter will need to provide a test case that demonstrates the crash in question. Reassigning since Kevin knows how this new ASM code works. | |||
