Damn. I hate memory bugs.

Urgh. It shouldn't be using zalloc'ed memory here. I can easily send a
patch for this, but...
All this seems to show some other allocation bug (I guess some
function writes into memory it hasn't allocated) which might be hidden
if I send the patch to make it use heap memory now, so...
But I can't repeat the bug. Tanaka, can you try it using --enable-zsh-mem,
--enable-secure-free and --enable-mem-warining? That may (or may not)
give us more information where it is actually failing. Also: does it
use mmap for heaps on Solaris 7?
Bye
Sven
