Description
This PR skips the mentioned test on FreeBSD. Python modules are loaded with
RTLD_LOCAL, which resolves the same C++ exception types into different global names. Furthermore, FreeBSD useslibc++, which unlikelibstdc++, doesn't provide a specific conversion of such typeinfo differences. As a comparison, MacOS also useslibc++but works because its modules are load withRTLD_GLOBAL(a special case handled in CPython).The test build uses clang++19 on FreeBSD 15. But I also saw this failure on FreeBSD 14 with clang++16.
Before this PR, simply building with tests and running
make checkon FreeBSD outputs the error:It becomes XFAIL after this PR and all other tests also pass.
