Just resurrecting this thread: the problem with building swi-prolog on ppc64
remains, and neither Gérard Milmeister (the maintainer) nor I (new
co-maintainer) have any idea what's going on. I've tried a variety of CFLAGS
including "-O0" and the build always dies with a segfault when running the
newly-built pl interpreter as part of the build process. Here's a recent failed
build from Koji:

Anyone with any idea what's going on?

Thanks,
