Subject: Re: innfeed-users: New Snapshot: 0.10.1.3.tar.gz

} Now I've started to use 0.10.1.3 on funneled channel feed. But
} innfeed somtimes dumps core. All of them aborts at botch() in
} malloc.c. I modified Makefile to use distributed malloc.c.
} This happens when the channel is flushed by newgroup or rmgroup.
} But not always. I have 7 peers and 2 peers(full feed) are very
} slow to get articles. 5 minutes later since the channel flushed,
} it dumps core. Until then innfeed seems to wait for the peer's
} response.

I've checked the codes to see how it comes, and found a problem
with PointersFreedOnExit's contents. They should be pointers
allocated by ALLOC, CALLOC, MALLOC, REALLOC or REMALLOC. The
pointers got by newBuffer() or newBufferByCharP() are not always
such one. Attatched is diff from 0.10.1.3. This won't cause
dumping core.
