This seems like it could be the same memory access error showing up elsewhere.

This has now been narrowed down to being caused by the Bionic changes. Need to narrow it down to a specific change next. Hopefully it's the same issue causing the Chromium/WebView memory access errors.

This is now fixed. It wasn't the same issue as the browser issues. However, the pthread_atfork memory protection code in Bionic had to be extended to cover the newly added code path (in Marshmallow) for removing handlers and that is likely the cause of those issues. Both fixes will be included in the next release.

A new release with the fixes is now available. Ignore the screwed up metadata on the downloads page. The over-the-air update server needs to be updated to cope with block-based updates.
