For array allocations, you need to take care that the array is
deallocated using the array delete [] operator, i.e.
char *buf = new char[len];
delete [] buf;
Using an auto_ptr<char> is incorrect in this situation, because it will
deallocate using the non-array delete operator. You should use
boost::scoped_array (or boost::shared_array if it is to be reference counted)
instead.
