I can't replicate this crash with the release version of 0.21.1 (or trunk) on OS X, so I wonder if there's something system-specific about it. (Also, it appears to be crashing in libc, though it's reported as a recursive crash so maybe there's some memory corruption.) How did you install crawl? Is this crash something that's happening for all crawl games, or just for this save?

This occurs on Fedora 28 on any save when using their crawl build "dnf install crawl" (see https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1575324 [^] ).

The issue is not reproduced if I rebuild crawl from sources
(git clone https://github.com/crawl/crawl.git; [^] cd crawl/crawl-ref/source; git checkout 0.21.1; make)

Building from upstream git sources (at git checkout 0.21.1; git reset --hard; git clean -f -d -x) with the same flags as the Fedora package:

$ g++ --version
g++ (GCC) 8.0.1 20180324 (Red Hat 8.0.1-0.20)
$ make 'CFOPTIMIZE=-O2 -g -pipe -Wall -Werror=format-security -Wp,-D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 -Wp,-D_GLIBCXX_ASSERTIONS -fexceptions -fstack-protector-strong -grecord-gcc-switches -specs=/usr/lib/rpm/redhat/redhat-hardened-cc1 -specs=/usr/lib/rpm/redhat/redhat-annobin-cc1 -m64 -mtune=generic -fasynchronous-unwind-tables -fstack-clash-protection -mcet -fcf-protection -fPIC' 'STDFLAG=-O2 -g -pipe -Wall -Werror=format-security -Wp,-D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 -Wp,-D_GLIBCXX_ASSERTIONS -fexceptions -fstack-protector-strong -grecord-gcc-switches -specs=/usr/lib/rpm/redhat/redhat-hardened-cc1 -specs=/usr/lib/rpm/redhat/redhat-annobin-cc1 -m64 -mtune=generic -fasynchronous-unwind-tables -fstack-clash-protection -mcet -fcf-protection -std=gnu++11 -fPIC'

however does result the same crash.

So I guess it's either gcc 8 miscompilation, or some real memory protection issue, uncovered by the hardening flags.

Hello.

It looks like this crash is caused by '-Wp,-D_GLIBCXX_ASSERTIONS' compiler flag, recently (starting from fedora 28) added to the default C++ compiler flags on Fedora build system.

Any chance to resolve this issue from upstream side?

I think I found this particular issue by inspecting the code, it was sort of obvious once I saw the crash-report with the detailed stack trace posted on the redhat bug tracker. I don't use gcc so can't try out this flag myself, but another devteam member will -- I wouldn't be surprised if it turns up more stuff. The fix is in master as https://github.com/crawl/crawl/commit/0c774a7e83d7 [^]

It will appear in the next stable release of crawl, though that won't happen immediately (on the order of a month or two).
