Thanks for these fixes. Sorry, I was in a hurry, and don't have a Cygwin system for testing. > It also lacks the HASUB/FREEUB macro usage present in the MacOS version of > fpurge, which means you may have introduced a memory leak. Indeed. It is quite rare, since pushing back more than 1 byte or pushing back a byte that was not previously read from the stream is not covered by ISO C 99 (as far as I understand; in particular Solaris and mingw don't support it), but you are right that if the stream is in that state, fpurge() should do something sensible. 2007-04-23 Bruno Haible <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> * lib/fpurge.c (fpurge) [glibc, BSD]: Free a malloc()ed ungetc buffer.
