# HG changeset patch # User "Yann E.

For some of them, ./configure can't detect that, and the build fails later on. So, default to force unwind, and let the user disable it if it breaks in his/her case. The previous changeset (f44286235a07) was empty, as spotted by Benoît. Reported-by: Benoît THÉBAUDEAU Signed-off-by: "Yann E.

The issue seems to be related to building NPTL on old versions of glibc (and possibly eglibc as well) on some architectures
