In any case, I believe the following patch is cleaner than my last one.
Its approach is simply to synchronize the shift for all stacks. Embedded

That looks good to me.
Thanks. If no one objects, then it should be ready for install. It's a
separate bug and should be a separate patch from the one discussed below.
that
`If stack is well-formed' comment has me scared to do this. Can anyone
explain this comment?
It's meant to cover the case where the stack is only partially allocated
(it takes more than one malloc call to create it, and perhaps a later
malloc failed). But this can happen only during initialization; the
parser proper isn't invoked if the stack never got built right.
I see it now. Thanks.
The patch looks straight-forward, but I hope to devise a test case that
can reliably prove the bug and the patch.
