[Pkg-gnu-smalltalk-devel] Bug#558013: Segfault when seting n-th bit of number, with large n

[Jeronimo Pellegrini]

Package: gnu-smalltalk
Version: 3.0.3-2
Severity: normal

Hello,

GNU Smalltalk segfaults if I try to set the 1000000-th bit of
a number (maybe it could print an error message and fail
gracefully):

st> 0 bitAt: 1000000 put: 1
"Global garbage collection... done, heap grown"
"Global garbage collection... done"
"Global garbage collection... done, heap grown"
"Global garbage collection... done, heap grown"

Segmentation fault

Thanks,
