Recent versions of glibc check various memory problems... free non-malloc'd memory is one of them. In this case, it's trivial but it can help catch serious problem so it is a good thing even if it is a little annoying at times. (And I don't know of a way to temporarily disable it. Does anyone else?) And I don't really expect you to test on every version of Linux. ;-) > I'm not claiming to be bug free, but I'm not checking in useless code > either :-( I don't think I said that.
