not sure how else can we call a gmetad segfaulting.
in this case the code that is breaking is part of libganglia's
hash_lookup (hash.c) function while doing :
READ_LOCK(hash, i);
when hash is a NULL pointer because "EXTRA_ELEMENT" wasn't handled correctly
as shown by :
#0 0x00007ffec0f82520 in hash_lookup (key=0x43e3d820, hash=0x0) at hash.c:304
#1 0x0000000000405860 in startElement_EXTRA_ELEMENT (data=0x43e3dbf0,
el=<value optimized out>, attr=0x61ed10) at process_xml.c:731
#2 0x0000000000405e4c in start (data=0x43e3dbf0, el=0x61cd6c "EXTRA_ELEMENT",
attr=0x61ed10) at process_xml.c:1010
a quick workaround that just drops the extra elements at summarization
Committed revision 1631 for trunk, so that a hierarchical 3.1.0 setup can
be done (which I presume no one tested during the year long testing cycle)
otherwise this basically means 3.1.0 is useless in a hierarchical setup (with
more than 1 gmetad)
