SERV_IS_LOCAL is defined at the top of the file, and provides a simple check. If that's NOT true then the record is a complete server struct. If it is set then it's a struct serv_local, possibly with added IPv4 or IPV6 address, controlled by the SERV_4ADDR and SERV_6ADDR flags bits. /* If the server is USE_RESOLV or LITERAL_ADDRESS, it lives on the local_domains chain. */ #define SERV_IS_LOCAL (SERV_USE_RESOLV | SERV_LITERAL_ADDRESS) With that information, it's fairly easy to see that the code is correct. The problem here was nothing to do with this code, the domain search code assumed that --server=/example.com/# would not be set along with --server=/example.com/<address> and when that was done, it wrongly returned BOTH server records, each if which has different lengths. The consumer of that set of records assumed (as it was entitled to do) they were of the same type and length, hence the dereferencing of fields outside allocated memory. >I see many tricky corners without simple and readable checks > ensuring it always does what it should.

A major goal of this rewrite was to avoid wasting memory when there are 100,000 --address=/adserver.com/ lines in the configuration.

I still have you test system in a git branch, and would like to progress it. It would have been nice to find the regression (removal) of --address=/#/..... before release.
