Comment #32 on issue 28749 by de...@chromium.org: gcc 4.4-specific renderer  
crash in malloc, memory corruption while loading plugins (?)
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=28749

Using a union is actually against the C spec, and is only a GCCism.  The  
actual spec
specifies that it is only valid to read the field of the union that was  
last written to.

Was buf_ always an int8?  I thought I wrote it as a char.  There is  
specifically a clause in
the standard that allows aliasing through pointers to chars...  That might  
be enough to
fix it, anyone want to try?
