- Has anybody ever installed a signal handler to catch
- stack overflow (SIG 11 with nonempty window buffer) on a sparc?
- I have the problem that sometimes some functions don't work
- any more after a stack overflow occured.
- "sometimes" depends on the size of involved stack frames,
- "some functions" means e.g. system, dlopen, dlsym.
- The interrupted process, however, works perfectly after
- using a longjmp to recover from the trap.
- Any comments are welcome.
