BTW:
With regard to my previous reply to this question, what put
me on to the patch that seems to fix it for us was that a gdb
on the core file that results without the patch shows the segfault
in free(). It segfaults on libc5 linux platforms.
The comment in the patch names the routine where the structure that's
freed is delcared as a local variable. It seems that freeing local
variables is asking for trouble.
