I have a dim recollection that we talked about this before, but I'm going to ask again, anyway... https://svn.open-mpi.org/trac/ompi/changeset/25430 Why are we removing this debug message? It seems like a useful thing. It might well be legal to call free(NULL), but it seems like a bad idea to call free if we know the value will be NULL. Did we talk about this before, and I was in the minority for thinking removing it was a bad idea? -- Jeff Squyres jsquy...@cisco.com For corporate legal information go to: http://www.cisco.com/web/about/doing_business/legal/cri/
