bc -l segfaults

[Simone Basso]

The bc command segfaults when evaluating the result of an
expression, iff invoked with -l command line switch, as
follows:

   $ bc -lq
   1.4 / 2
   Segmentation fault
   $ bc -q
   12/4
   3
   $

The installed package is:

   bc 1.06-4

Bye
        Simone

Would be interesting which port you are talking about. :)

Seems like he's talking about the ppc port, I went to check the
PKGBUILD and it had something like this:

  if [ "$CARCH" = "x86_64" ] && CFLAGS="-O0"

I did the same but for ppc, and it doesn't crash now. I updated the
package and uploaded it.

Yes, I was talking about PPC... I promise I'll add the port name in
future ;-).

Thanks for the fix!
