I'm hitting that segfault as well:

akpm2:/usr/src/25> scripts/kconfig/conf -o arch/ia64/Kconfig
init/Kconfig:5:warning: environment variable KERNELVERSION undefined
zsh: segmentation fault (core dumped)  scripts/kconfig/conf -o arch/ia64/Kconfig


Can't find the core file - wtf?  Plan B:


akpm2:/usr/src/25> gdb scripts/kconfig/conf
...
This GDB was configured as "x86_64-redhat-linux-gnu"...(no debugging symbols found)

why don't we build these things with -g by default?  grump.

(gdb) r -o arch/ia64/Kconfig
