If Python 2.4.3 is build on Solaris 9 or 10 with Sun Studio 11 [cc: Sun C 5.8 2005/10/13], some of the tests of roundup fail with a core dump of Python. If build with gcc [gcc (GCC) 3.4.3 (csl-sol210-3_4-branch+sol_rpath)] all runs as expected.

I have compiled Python and bsd 4.3 on Solaris with Sun Studio as follows:

The Solaris 10 installation has been updated recently with smpatch.

Richard Jones suggested, that this could be a Python build problem. Below you find the anydbm information.

-bash-3.00$ uname -a
SunOS sunny 5.10 Generic_118855-02 i86pc i386 i86pc
-bash-3.00$ python
Python 2.4.3 (#1, May 21 2006, 02:39:16) [C] on sunos5

more information.
>>> import anydbm
>>> anydbm._defaultmod
<module 'dbhash' from '/usr/lib/python2.4/dbhash.pyc'>

All roundup tests fail with a core dump which are excluded by the following statement.

OK

It is definitely a problem which occurs if the Xapian module is loaded into Python and both Python and Xapian is compiled with Sun Studio 11 (Sun C 5.8). Unfortunately there is no solution yet, see bug report on the Xapian tracker http://www.xapian.org/cgi-bin/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=88 for details if you are interested in details.
