libmboard: ./tests/run_test_serial segfaults

[willfurnass]

Steps to reproduce:

curl -sL https://github.com/FLAME-HPC/libmboard/tarball/0.3.1 | tar -zx
pushd FLAME-HPC-libmboard-5811e29
touch README.in README  # avoid autoreconf errors
[[ -f configure ]] || autoreconf --verbose --force --install  # Generate ./configure and Makefile.in
[[ -f Makefile ]] && make clean
./configure \
    --prefix=$prefix_serial \
    --disable-parallel \
    --with-cunit=${cunit_install_dir}
make
make test
./tests/run_test_serial         # Test serial libmboard API

Segmentation fault      ./tests/run_test_serial

My config:

• Centos 7.4
• GCC 6.2.0
• CUnit 2.1-3
• libmboard 0.3.1

Anyone got any comments/suggestions?

Hello,

I have noticed that building the tests with CUnit 2.1.2 works as expected:

However when I compile libmboard linked to CUnit-2.1.3 I get a segmentation fault as indicated.

I have used CUnit-2.1.2 from https://sourceforge.net/projects/cunit/files/CUnit/

CUnit-2.1.3 from https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+archive/primary/+sourcefiles/cunit/2.1-3-dfsg-2/cunit_2.1-3-dfsg.orig.tar.gz

Note that I am using Ubuntu 14.04.

I compiled libmboard with CUnit 2.1.2 with

--prefix=/usr --enable-warnings --enable-verbose

and though all tests pass, I get quite a few warnings (example below, but there are many more):

But I have no idea if those warnings are important...
