Meanwhile I tracked the overwriting of the "environ" pointer to a memset
of a global data structure (initialize_options in readconf.c). My trace
output of the interesting addresses is this:
&environ: 0x70cfb69c
poptions: 0x70cfa218
&poptions->forward_agent: 0x70cfa218
&poptions->visual_host_key: 0x70cfb6c8
sizeof(Options): 5300
'forward_agent' is the first and 'visual_host_key' the last element of
the Options structure. As you can see the addresses overlap with 'environ'.
This looks like a compiler problem. Any hints to fix that?
Regards
Christoph
