The following program crashes: main() { char *x; x = (char *)malloc(1948280173); printf("allocated: %x\n", x); } The proper behavior would be a return value of "0" being printed (assuming you dont have 1948280173 bytes free :) Tim N. - For help on using this list (especially unsubscribing), send a message to "gnu-win32-request AT cygnus DOT com" with one line of text: "help".
