Subject: Strange behavior of 2.02 under Win95

Hello Magicians! ;)

I encountered strange behavior after recompiling my DLM package under
v2.02
When compiled with 2.01 it works fine both in DOS & Win95
Version, compiled with 2.02 refuses to work under Win95
It SIGSEGV's in 'free'. The crash happens, when trying to realloc.
In DOS it works fine, as well as
in RHIDE under Win95 (!), but I was unable to debug it
in RHIDE, as it stops with SIGINT upon entering in free
(Disassembler window). I looked in sources and noticed,
that malloc code was rewritten. 
So, what are those 'dangerous' situations with new alloc
algorithm ? Any suggestions ? I checked all the code,
but found no allocation faults, as well as no memory
chunks overwrite and other common bugs. I'll try
to use MSS package as soon as download it.

And one more question : 
Where should I upload my DLM package (both binary & source distribution)
?
To DJ's ftp or to simtel ? Or either put it on my public ftp and
announce ?
