             Summary: Trace trap error while starting CouchDB 
                 Key: COUCHDB-2045
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-2045
             Project: CouchDB
          Issue Type: Bug
      Security Level: public (Regular issues)
          Components: BigCouch
            Reporter: Russell Branca


I ran into an error today in the 1843-feature-bigcouch branch, where running `./rel/dev1/bin/couchdb` would result in the VM crashing with a trace trap error. I tracked this down to the couch_primary_sup child spec for the `collation_driver` when calling `couch_drv:start_link()`, and more particularly, I was able to reproduce this error in a standard Erlang shell by running the command: `erl_ddll:load("/tmp/bigcouch/rel/dev1/lib/couch-2f254d9/priv", "couch_icu_driver").`

After poking around with things, I ended up stumbling upon: http://openradar.appspot.com/7209349 (linked from http://erlang.org/pipermail/erlang-questions/2010-April/050563.html). I was able to resolve the error by doing `export DYLD_INSERT_LIBRARIES=/System/Library/Frameworks/CoreFoundation.framework/Versions/A/CoreFoundation` in the shell prior to executing `./rel/dev1/bin/couchdb`.

This seems like a logical addition to the flags set in `src/couch/rebar.config.script`, but I'm not familiar with CoreFoundation, so I don't have a recommendation on the proper way to do this across platforms.
