I'm using libc6 2.0.7pre1-4 and strcpy gives me a segmentation
error!
I've attached my C test program for inspection(source only).
I only do a few things. malloc memory for a variable(forgot a
corresponding free)
copy a string in this varible, copy this string to another
string, print both
on
This is your fault. You need to allocate memory for temp2.
void main(void)
{
char *temp1, *temp2;
temp1 = malloc (10);
insert `temp2 = malloc (10);' here.
strcpy (temp1, high all);
strcpy (temp2, temp1);
printf(%s %s, temp1, temp2);
}

#include stdlib.h
#include stdio.h
#include string.h
void main(void)
{
char *temp1, *temp2;
temp1 = malloc (10);
strcpy (temp1, high all);
strcpy (temp2, temp1);
printf(%s %s, temp1, temp2);
}
