I have Julia 0.6.0 on FreeBSD 11. It is exhibiting the following behavior:

I’ve tried running gdb on a core dump, and the backtrace is more than 3000 lines. The most informative part seems to be the tail:
[ko@wiley ~]$ tail btr

I don’t know what this implies. Is there some way to debug “more at the source level”? With stacktrace()?
I’ve also built julia 0.7-dev from the git repository, so that no FreeBSD system libraries are used. The problem persists.
