In the RC versions, both pipe.c and forward.c have code that reads:
...strblock = (char *)my_malloc(READ_BLOCK_SIZE)...
....
/* fread won't do this for us! */
strblock[usedmem]='\0';
which sometimes causes a segfault when reading large files. I notice that
the CVS version of pipe.c has been fixed to read:
...strblock = (char *)my_malloc(READ_BLOCK_SIZE + 1)...
but not forward.c.
