>Description:
I am getting a Segmentation fault on a function call consistently. It is in the assembly code on a function call. I can reproduce this bug consistently and I am unable to solve it. I have taken out one of my compiler flags -fno-exceptions and it will no longer link. I am getting the following linking error "/usr/ccs/bin/ld: Unsatisfied symbols: __get_eh_context (code)". I looked for where this is called and it is in the "doBehavior(eventObj);" function call. If you could be help me it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for your help.
 
Compiler : gcc version 2.95
Workstation:          HP-UX 9000/712
 
      
 
Program Structure:
void X::doBehavior(StateMachine *eventObj)
   {
     // runs the the objects event 
    return;
   }
 
 
void X::enterState(stateType state, StateMachine *eventObj)
  {
   
    pushState(state);
    doBehavior(eventObj);       // Program Segmentation faults on this line, always. It does not get to the functions first line of code and it completes the line of code just prior to it.
   
   return;
 }

Bug Conditions:
The function call "doBehavior(eventObj)" is called approximately 10 - 15 times in a consistent loop. In the bellow assembler code the function calls that do work properly will run one after the other consecutively. Each Segmentation fault will die on the same line of assembly code (=>).
