Hi Ahcheong,
I am sorry but I am unable to reproduce this problem. Are you
definitely using the latest version of the master sources ?
I am also not sure that this is really a problem. The attempt
to allocate a ridiculously large amount of memory will fail,
and the code in the BFD library ought to detect this and
behave appropriately. (If it does not then this is a real bug).
But just attempting to allocate a huge amount of memory is not
necessarily a failure, although it does cause issues with memory
checkers like the address sanitizer. If you run with
"allocator_may_return_null=1" enabled, are there any further
problems ?
Cheers
Nick
