That was my point too.
The crash that started this thread was introduced by this (recent) change:
2005-09-10 Giuseppe Scrivano <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Remove the MAXPATHLEN limitations:
* sysdep.c (get_current_dir_name)
[!HAVE_GET_CURRENT_DIR_NAME]:
New function.
* buffer.c (init_buffer): Use it.
^^^^^^^^^^^^
This calls xrealloc on the result of get_current_dir_name ...
