I'm deeply sorry I will have to retire yap package because:
It crashes on i686 after updating GCC to 7

Last stable version is 7 years old (we have it in Fedora).
Last development version is 4 years old (Jerry James tried to update
but it does not work with non-lazy linking) and it fails on i686 too

Upstream does not respond
<

with the code reveals other bugs like signed interger overflows or
linkage failure with disabled optimizations because of wrong inlining.
Finally I don't understand the code especially the stack-based
interpreter.
Just another piece of information which may be relevant for anyone
interested in taking care of the package: It looks like the project was
pretty active until Feb 11, 2016, but there are no commits after that. I
don't know if you've tried building the latest git version or only the
latest development release.
As an update would bring major changes, a re-review would probably a
good idea anyway.
