- SA_NODEFER. sigaction without it blocks the handler's own signal for the
whole handler, and here the handler is the park — it never returns. A
hardware SIGSEGV delivered while SIGSEGV is blocked is not handled: the
kernel forces the default action. Fault, park, eval something at the
break loop that faults, daemon gone, exactly the author's session one
level in. Measured both ways; flan_crash_entered is cleared before the
hook so each break-loop fault still gets its line, and the case is pinned
(trap_park ~refault:true), confirmed to fail without the flag.
- Scope the handler to the thread it was armed on. A disposition is per
process and a merged dev session is one process, so this was shadowing
OCaml's SIGSEGV handler — and Stack_overflow — for the daemon's whole
life. Other threads chain to what was installed before. Arming per run
would leave the parked prompt's evaluations unprotected, since those are
program code too; the comment says so. Also makes the per-thread
sigaltstack honest.
- Sweep dyn-view.flan and string-eq.flan, which dev-loop added after the
first sweep. string-eq:46 wanted the aliasing outright: its comment is
about two slices sharing a base pointer.
- A StorageExhausted row for bytes, asserting the retry copies once and
whole rather than re-evaluating its argument.
- Gate the flan_dev_crash_enable declare to dev builds, so this lane adds
no dev-only text to a release module. flan_bytes_dup stays ungated: a
release build really calls it.
- Guard the section for wasm32, which compiles this file and has no
signals.
