If the old assertion fires, then there's a wild pointer somewhere.
Thanks.

Old assertion == wild pointer (or other malloc issue).
That's what I needed to know.
FWIW, this patch likely avoids the free that is almost certainly
the primary

I've been trying to understand the secondary cause that is snarled
up with walking interlocked dependency loops and displaying the
relations involved, but I will likely need to look at that first
hand by
installing MDV 2008.1, todo++.
Thanks for the help.
