I just installed a new DragonFly/amd64 system on a blank disk. Most of the
basic applications (base system, non-graphic packages) work fine.
While building applications from pkgsrc, I noticed many crashes of make(1)
with signal 11s. Nevertheless, I was able to install most of the programs I
wanted.
Things took a turn for the worse when I tried to run X11. None of the window
managers I tested could run. They all crashed with signal 11s.
The only application I was able to run under X is xterm. All others I could
test crashed immediately after launch.
I don't believe the new amd64 port should be so unstable. My test machine is
a Core 2 Duo system and runs DragonFly/i386 perfectly fine.
What can I do to find out what's wrong with X11 applications ?

 

X support for the amd64 port was added just a few days ago and nobody 
has put the effort yet to make it work well.
