Perhaps. In case it's relevant, I believe this may be why libtool provides lt_dlmalloc, lt_dlrealloc, and lt_dlfree. See the libtool info pages: -- Variable: lt_ptr (*) (size_t SIZE) lt_dlmalloc -- Variable: lt_ptr (*) (lt_ptr PTR, size_t SIZE) lt_dlrealloc -- Variable: void (*) (lt_ptr PTR) lt_dlfree These variables are set to `malloc', `realloc' and `free' by default, but you can set them to any other functions that provide equivalent functionality. If you change any of these function pointers, you will almost certainly need to change all three to point into the same malloc library. Strange things will happen if you allocate memory from one library, and then pass it to an implementation of `free' that doesn't know what book keeping the allocator used. You must not modify any of their values after calling any libltdl function other than `lt_dlpreopen_default' or the macro `LTDL_SET_PRELOADED_SYMBOLS'. -- Rob Browning rlb @defaultvalue.org and @debian.org; previously @cs.utexas.edu GPG starting 2002-11-03 = 14DD 432F AE39 534D B592 F9A0 25C8 D377 8C7E 73A4 _______________________________________________ Guile-user mailing list Guile-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/guile-user
