in the old one no longer working:
08:59 < aja> pypy:/usr/lib/libutil.so.13.0: undefined symbol 'freezero'
08:59 < aja> pypy:/usr/lib/libutil.so.13.0: undefined symbol 'recallocarray'
Note that the W^X patch only makes the CPython-based no_bootstrap build work,
and that the PyPy JIT itself is still not W^X compliant. This will require more
work.
OK jca@, thanks.
- raise minimum amount of memory in the ulimit check to 5GB (the no_bootstrap
flavour uses even more, usually crashing the kernel on my 8GB workstation if
I try to build it there)
had problems for at least naddy and myself after updating libc/pthread.
(Simple in this case; the bootstrap is just here to use pypy [i.e. JIT]
during build to save time/RAM, pypy can also be built using the normal
python interpreter). ok edd@
python 2.7 to run the translations; this saves ~1.3GB RAM and runs much
faster. as this is optional, a new no_bootstrap pseudo-flavour allows
rebuilding bootstraps from scratch to help with flag days.
- also check early that the datasize limit is reasonable for the build;
no point swapping for ages and then running out of ram.
discussed with Laurie Tratt (maintainer).

OK sthen@: "ok sthen who says that beck should add it to torture"
