mantissa_unpack segfault

[Peter R. Wood - Mailing Lists]

Hello,

I'm trying to watch dvd's on my PowerPC system. I got vlc from cvs, 
configured with debugging flags set, and built. I ran the program from within 
gdb, and here's the output I got in the terminal window. I did get a few 
seconds of video from the vlc viewer, but then it segfaulted.

(gdb) run dvd:/dev/dvd
Starting program: /usr/bin/vlc dvd:/dev/dvd

Any ideas what the problem could be?
