Tcl Source Code

I haven't tested Sol9 or Sparc yet, but for this

Patch accepted for all release branches

This patch by Dagobert Michelson fixes the reported behaviour and compiles, links and passes tests. (Solaris 10 i386 and amd64 are what I have tested so far.)

Here's a bit more info about the system I'm trying to build on:

Thanks, das!

Comments on ticket 1793984 suggest
the problem here is using a version of
DTrace that was out of date in 2007.
"(fixed in SXDE 5/07)"

Try updating that to see if it solves
the issue.

1793984 has the details on which version of Solaris was tested at the time the patch was committed. I know that some older Solaris versions had bugs in DTrace support that caused problems, but can't recall the details at this point.
No time to look into this for the forseeable future (don't have a solaris install anymore)

Repro'd in Tcl releases 8.5.10 and 8.5.0.

Suspect some regression in the DTrace
facility itself on Solaris?  I can't imagine
DTrace feature was committed to Tcl broken
since day one.

Is this a new failure in 8.5.10 ?
