"fatal error: malloc/free - deadlock" when using x64 go/libs on windows about qml

[niemeyer]

As mentioned in the answer to the original group post, this might be related to MinGW 64bit, which feels a bit dubious according to these notes:

• http://qt-project.org/wiki/MinGW-64-bit

People that tried the 32bit versions of both MinGW and Qt apparently got it working consistently.

I'll close this as being the case for the time being. If you find some further evidence that this is a problem in the qml package itself rather than in the environment, please reopen it including these details so we can investigate further.

Thanks, and sorry for not having better news.

Just wanted to point to pull request #21 which includes a work around for this issue, in case anyone else stumbles across this issue by searching.

As mentioned in that issue, the logic in idletimer.cpp has been changed to not depend on glib anymore, and we have people successfully using the qml package on Windows. I believe both of these bugs are fixed, but please do reopen if that's not the case.
