[Bug 1471029] [NEW] Segfault in xsltproc on i386

 

Public bug reported:

Running the Samba autobuild tests on a 15.04 openstack image results in
a segfault in this command:

/usr/bin/xsltproc --nonet -o default/docs-xml/manpages/smb.conf.5
/home/ubuntu/autobuild/b22271/samba/docs-xml/xslt/man.xsl default/docs-
xml/manpages/smb.conf.5.xml

I reported this upstream as a bug in xsltproc, but it was found to be
impossible to reproduce using upstream source on the openstack instance:

https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=751764

Comment 8 (https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=751764#c8) is
particularly informative.

The stack trace below shows the segfault actually occurs in libxml's
xpath evaluation functions. I see no difference between xpath.c in
upstream 2.9.2 and Ubuntu's version.
