UnixBench version: 5.1.3 Operating System: CentOS 7.1

I encounter a Segmentation Fault running UnixBench against CentOS 7.1:

I can run the same version of UnixBench on Ubuntu 14.x successfully.

Is the whetstone test crashing immediately, or after some period of time?

Potentially similar to #15, #18, #26

This might be due to improper time calculation.

Suggested solution is to modify Makefile $(PROGDIR)/whetstone-double: CFLAGS += -DDP -DUNIX -DUNIXBENCH to replace -DUNIX with -DGTODay and to make clean; make

Would you give that a try?

This turned out to be user error; I copied the source code to a different machine without remembering to delete the existing executables.
