 It dies for me on both Solaris2.8 and NetBSD-current.  I opened PR 25048 last
weekend.

 Does 'widget' work for you?

 My simple checks under NetBSD suggest it's dieing in setcontext.


 My Solaris2.8 'make test' gives:

[...lots of info...]
Failed 28/46 test scripts, 39.13% okay. 2197/2618 subtests failed, 16.08% okay.

 NetBSD-current:

Failed 28/46 test scripts, 39.13% okay. 2197/2618 subtests failed, 16.08% okay.
