Hmm.
The calls to __scan_num_objid expects the oid length to be an int*, the
calls to read_objid, get_node and get_wild_node expects it to be a
size_t*
I am thus more inclined towards a patch that also changes the signature
of __scan_num_objid to
static int __scan_num_objid _((char *, oid *, size_t *));
to make the patch more correct.
Additionally this looks like a general fault case that could be present
in more places so maybe a global search for size_t/int confusion might
be in place as well?
