I've just noticed this RC bug [1] against scilab. After reading through
the recent thread on this subject [2] I must admit I have no clue what
to do.

I don't have access to any box with TSX enabled, and failed to find any
porterbox as well. Would building with '-fsanitize=thread' expose the
bug on a TSX disabled box?

Thanks in advance for any piece of advice,
