In very old versions of Fedora, it was enabled to build gawk with this library. More about this library can be found here: https://www.gnu.org/software/libsigsegv/ However, because of the BZ #524795 it was eventually disabled as a kind of workaround. It was then forgotten and was never re-enabled again. Even emacs developers noticed that in their's mailing list: https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2014-09/msg00238.html They used this mistake as an argument, which was incorrect, but mainly was not right (nor cool :)). And because vanilla build of gawk, as well as Debian-like distributions, uses this feature, it was enabled again. AFAIK, there are no security implications that should prevent use of this library. |
