$ ./modify_ldt02
modify_ldt02    1  TPASS  :  value read as expected
modify_ldt02    0  TINFO  :  received signal: 11
modify_ldt02    2  TFAIL  :  modify_ldt02.c:136: Did not generate SEGV

(I wrote my report below affected line)

11 is SIGSEGV, thus there must be a bug in a test, which probably has been there
before (test just didn't check). It's strange that WTERMSIG(status) returns 0
instead of 11.

Yes.

Old results:
modify_ldt02    0  TINFO  :  Enter block 1
modify_ldt02    0  TINFO  :  block 1 PASSED
modify_ldt02    0  TINFO  :  Exit block 1
modify_ldt02    0  TINFO  :  Enter block 2
modify_ldt02    0  TINFO  :  received signal: 11
modify_ldt02    0  TINFO  :  block 2 PASSED

NOTE: no PASS/FAIL.

Kind regards,
Petr
