[Buildroot] Debugging VICE emulator for AVR32

[John Voltz]

Hi,

For some time now, I have been trying to debug the VICE emulator in
buildroot. There seems to be a problem with uClibc 0.9.29. VICE will not
start on x86 or on AVR32, but it would run in the past on uClibc 0.9.28. In
fact, the old binary of VICE that I built for 0.9.28 will run with 0.9.29. I
find that strange. I'm hoping someone can help me make sense of the gdb
info. Here is where the segfault occurs immediately after starting VICE on
AVR32:
