Pari/GP hanging on tests

[Alasdair McAndrew <amca01@gmail.com>]

Hello,

I've just compiled a new Pari/GP from source against GMP and readline.  The compile went through fine, but I'm having troubles with testing:  "make test-all" chugs away happily and then stalls on the charpoly test; "make dobench" just hangs immediately after printing "* Testing objets" to the screen.  Also, "make test-all" produces the line

* Testing characteristic   gp-sta..TIME=    0   gp-dyn..TIME=    0

which seems as though something is not working as it should.

And even more - "make test-kernel" crashes with a core dump; here is the complete output:

Making test-kernel in Olinux-x86_64

KERNEL BUG

Is this a problem with GMP, and if so, is there some way I can test my compilation?  If not, what is going on - and again, how can I run a complete test?

Just to be sure, my compilation took two steps:

./Configure --tune

make all

The compiler picked up the readline and GMP libraries, and there were no errors during the compilation.

Many thanks,

Alasdair
