In src/linux/zfilew.c
If $HOME is defined, obtaindir attempts to free the result of
getenv("HOME"), which is bad because that value is a static value and
must not be freed. The new glibc does tighter checking of such things,
which is why it is broken under the new glibc.
I've attached a patch, should I submit it upstream, because it's
definitely the upstream source that is broken, or will you guys do that?
While I'm thinking about it, someone should open a wishlist bug to allow
for the building of gdb-friendly binaries without the manual fiddling I
had to do.
