Package: gtk+
Version: 1.2.2

GTK+ 1.2.2, compiled under AIX 4.3.2 with gcc 2.8.1, dumps core upon
startup of any program compiled with it.

tss1crs:~/gtk+-1.2.2/gtk$ dbx .libs/testgtk
[...]
(dbx) run

Segmentation fault in glink.exit at 0xd12de738 ($t1)
0xd12de738 (exit+0x58) 800c0000        lwz   r0,0x0(r12)
(dbx) where
glink.exit() at 0xd12de738
gtk_set_locale(), line 443 in "gtkmain.c"
main(argc = 1, argv = 0x2ff22ab8), line 8349 in "testgtk.c"

I get the same result whether LANG is set to C, or set to en_US, or unset.

This might be the same as bug #1526?

Subject: The problem and a horrible fix for bug #1087 on AIX

AIX shared library support doesn't permit unresolved symbols in a
shared library.  The problem here is that libgtk-1.2.so.0.5.2 depends
on libgdk, but it doesn't have -lgdk when it's built.

I'm not sure what the right fix is, since it looks like
gtk/Makefile.am and configure.in will need to be altered to support
this quirk.  However, here's what I did to get gtk+-1.2.7 to work with
gcc-2.95.2 on AIX 4.1.5:

	./configure --with-locale=C
	make
	make install
	rm -f gdk/libgdk.la gtk/libgtk.la
	# Add "-lgdk " before "-lgmodule" in libgtk_la_LDFLAGS defined
	# in gtk/Makefile
	make
	make install

Ignore the "_GLOBAL__DI" and "_GLOBAL_DD" warnings.  The
gtk/test{dnd,gtk,input,rgb,selection} programs appear to function
correctly.  For what it's worth, here's the output of the testrgb
program:

Visual 0x22, type = pseudo color, depth = 8, 0:0:0 (system); score=4111
Visual 0x29, type = direct color, depth = 8, e0:1c:3; score=4100
Visual 0x2a, type = direct color, depth = 8, e0:1c:3; score=4100
Visual 0x2b, type = direct color, depth = 8, e0:1c:3; score=4100
Visual 0x26, type = true color, depth = 8, e0:1c:3; score=4101
Visual 0x27, type = true color, depth = 8, e0:1c:3; score=4101
Visual 0x28, type = true color, depth = 8, e0:1c:3; score=4101
Visual 0x24, type = static color, depth = 8, 0:0:0; score=4100
Visual 0x23, type = grayscale, depth = 8, 0:0:0; score=4100
Visual 0x25, type = static gray, depth = 8, 0:0:0; score=4100
color cube: 5 x 5 x 5
Chose visual 0x22, image bpp=8, msb first
Color test time elapsed: 1.35s, 73.9 fps, 4.73 megapixels/s

Grayscale test time elapsed: 0.96s, 104.0 fps, 6.65 megapixels/s

Please submit these results to http://www.levien.com/gdkrgb/survey.html

I can put my libraries up for ftp if anyone is interested ...
