Ok - more inf... I think I've found the problem...

site_list_type::init (...)
  [snip some code]

  char *dp = new char[2 * newurl.size() + 3];
  while (dot != dots)
    {
      if (*dot == '.' || *dot == '/')
    {
      char *sp;
      if (dot[3] == 0)
        *dp++ = '~';    /* sort .com/.edu/.org together */
      for (sp = dot + 1; *sp && *sp != '.' && *sp != '/';)
        *dp++ = *sp++;
      *dp++ = ' ';
    }
      --dot;
    }
  *dp++ = ' ';
  strcpy (dp, dots);
  delete[] dots;
  key = String (dp);

LOOK HERE - This is not right - we should delete at the base of the
block, not somewhere in the middle of it.
  delete[] dp;

We can do something like that
char *dp = ....
char *dp_save = dp;

 ....

 delete[] dp_save;
