Re: macOS status

Greetings, and happy holidays!

I could use a little summary as to the live remaining issues.  My
understanding is that both hunks of your previous 'memory corruption'
patch are now gone, one because posix_spawn is in the tree, and the
second as you report you cannot reproduce the file closing issue.
Working from the same commit is obviously preferable, but a few
explicitly mentioned patches are ok too with each report.  Logs or
pointers to logs are great too!

We also appear to have several simultaneous environments, private and
github/macports, x86_64, i386, arm/rosetta (? not sure what this is),
perhaps different macos versions (12, 13?), gcc vs. clang, etc.
Probably best to keep a little table and tackle one box at a time.  The
posted build log at the link you sent is very helpful, as was the
backtrace of the recent environment variable processing we discovered.
(This needs a comprehensive fix along the lines of your atof which I
will work out with you.)

The issue below means an out of bounds array access was attempted.  I
cannot reproduce at the commit you mention.  Almost surely something
else has been miscompiled here.  May I suggest seeing if you can
reproduce this with current HEAD, and if so, bisecting from your last
successful build.  Assuming x86_64/clang as before.

Take care,
