mysql_install_d b on Mysql 4.1.0 seg-faults

[Simon]

Hi,

I'm trying to get a version of MySQL 4.1.0 installed on my (Gentoo Linux)
machine. I have a copy of MySQL 4.0.13 already installed, using Gentoo's
ebuilds, but am trying to install 4.1.0 in a side-by-side configuration.
(Into /usr/local/mysql_alpha, talking to port 3300) - So I can run 4.0 as my
"production " server, and muck about with 4.1.0 while I'm testing out the new
features.

I'm compiling it from source. Here is what I used to configure it:

CFLAGS="-mcpu=pentium3 -O3 -pipe" CXXFLAGS="${CFL AGS} -felide-constructors
-fno-exceptions -fno-rtti" CXX="gcc" ./configure
--prefix=/usr/local/mysql_alpha --enable-assembler
--with-mysqld-ldflags=-all-static --disable-shared --with-charset=latin1
--with-mysql-user=mysql --with-extra-charsets=all
--with-unix-socket-path=/var/run/mysqld/mysqld_alpha.so ck
--with-tcp-port=3300

It compiles all fine, and I can install it with 'make install'... But then I
go to run mysql_install_d b (as root) and it segfaults. Output here:

This could be because you hit a bug. It is also possible that this binary
or one of the libraries it was linked against is corrupt, improperly built,
or misconfigured. This error can also be caused by malfunctioning hardware.
We will try our best to scrape up some info that will hopefully help diagnose
the problem, but since we have already crashed, something is definitely wrong
and this may fail.

key_buffer_size =8388600
read_buffer_siz e=131072
sort_buffer_siz e=2097144
max_used_connec tions=0
max_connections =100
threads_connect ed=1
It is possible that mysqld could use up to
key_buffer_size + (read_buffer_si ze + sort_buffer_siz e)*max_connecti ons =
225791 K
bytes of memory
Hope that's ok; if not, decrease some variables in the equation.

Attempting backtrace. You can use the following information to find out
where mysqld died. If you see no messages after this, something went
terribly wrong...
Cannot determine thread, fp=0x409ae858, backtrace may not be correct.
Stack range sanity check OK, backtrace follows:

MySQL 4.0 is NOT running while I'm attempting to do all this. The other
installation of MySQL works fine, without any problems.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Simon
