While testing my own asgen backend I tried processing a package for the [Stellarium](https://stellarium.org) project. It took more than 2 hours to process it. A little debugging revealed that the...
When running `asgen` on FreeBSD I get the following crash on extremely rare occasions: ``` (process:83731): GLib-CRITICAL **: 14:00:59.457: g_atomic_ref_count_inc: assertion 'old_value > 0' failed Thread 1 received signal SIGBUS,...
