We are now experiencing it in Nixpkgs.

The build log looks the same until running tests:

The test does pass for me on x86_64 on Ubuntu Rodete. Tell me more about the environment in which it fails.

[mweinelt]

I could bisect this error to our (nixpkgs) xz upgrade from 5.4.6 to 5.6.0.

[trofi]

tukaani-project/xz@6daa4d0 xz: Use threaded mode by defaut (as if --threads=0 was used). upstream change caused the test failures in libbacktrace.

[trofi]

Using XZ_OPT="--trheads=2" environment variable I was able to reproduce the test failures on xz-5.4.6 as well.

[ianlancetaylor]

Thanks for finding out how to reproduce the problem. Should be fixed now.
