Curious: do you have a Google Alert set up for "D programming language"?

Yes.

Weird, it does not segfault here. Could it be some buggy Curl build?

Could be. I've gotten similar segfaults on windows using wrong builds.

You folks may want to reply to that thread (e.g. inviting the OP here for further issue investigation).

I do not use ubuntu anymore. But the version of gdc in ubuntu's repository has been bugguy for a long time, and still may be bugguy.

I did mention that in the newgroup as well as on ubuntu's forum. This is a bad advertisement for D, but broken packages are quite common on ubuntu (gd lib for PHP has been broken for years).

Just installed libcurl from the repos and also got a segfault.

System: Ubuntu 11.10 32bit, dmd 2.057
the versions of libcurl3 and libcurl4-openssl-dev 7.21.6-3ubuntu3, the version string in the etc.c.curl header is 7.21.4 (is this a problem?)

OT: Why does dmd ignore the pragma(lib, ...) in the etc.c.curl module while rdmd seems to recognize it?

What I think is happening:

The pragma(lib, ...) causes DMD's -deps=filename option to include the library file in the dependency list that gets output. RDMD takes that list and sends everything in it back to DMD on the command line. Apperently, DMD is only forwarding libs to the linker when it receives them on the command line (though I don't know why, sounds like a bug to me).

Isn't that what it's supposed to do, just forward the lib to the linker?
