I > have been unable to figure out the problem, but I can replicate your results here. The previous commit works, while this one fails. I did try running under valgrind and with MALLOC_CHECK_ set to 3, but didn't get anything useful (to my eyes, anyway). Interestingly, I did seem to get slightly different behavior when running under valgrind with the memorytest, but nothing that really points a finger at what might be wrong. It's possible there's some timing related problem, but I suspect what's happening is valgrind is changing the system behavior with respect to the task that crashes. Mostly I just wanted to report that I can replicate John's results on Debian, even though I haven't made any other progress. - -- Charles Steinkuehler char...@steinkuehler.net -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.11 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAk+bB9wACgkQLywbqEHdNFywlgCfd7cj2YoBCuQOh2xwODPDYwkK J0cAnAjjUVy5UCZ84YwAiFAeT8t2Gg3N =c6gp -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
