I've been downloading this for months and using it, and I think freesci is 
great. I build it under the Win32 platform.

Recently, I have had an issue of it crashing when starting up with a memory 
related error. I believe it began with the 20011208 CVS image.

Directly after it parses the config file, it crashes with a Application 
Error (The instruction at <hex number> referenced memory at "0x00000000". 
The memory could not be "read".

If you debug it, it points to the source code inside of sci_memory.c to this 
function:

inline char *
_SCI_STRDUP(const char *src, char *file, int line, char *funct, int debug)
{
        void *res;
        ALLOC_MEM((res = strdup(src)), strlen(src), file, line, funct, debug)
        return res;
}

It highlights the Memory Allocation line. Not quite sure what's going on. I 
haven't personally had to use memory allocation much in C++, so I can't fix 
it on my local copy this time. :)

Anyway, just FYI.
