Hi ML!

I am using:

$ uname -a
CYGWIN_NT-4.0 TOLIMAN 1.1.7(0.31/3/2) 2000-12-25 12:39 i686 unknown

I am trying to apply this patch:

http://slrn.sourceforge.net/patches/slrn-0.9.6.4-pl2.diff.gz

to this Sourcetree:

ftp://space.mit.edu/pub/davis/slrn/ssl/slrn-0.9.6.4.tar.gz

While processing the patches of the pl I get the following Error:

> Patching file `/home/slrn-0.9.6.4pl2/doc/slrn.rc' using Plan A...
> assertion "hunk" failed: file "/src/patch/patch.c", line 334
>       0 [sig] patch 246 stackdump: Dumping stack trace to patch.exe.stackdump
> Aborted (core dumped)

If I divide the .diff File (211k) into pieces (around 25k) I can get around the problem, so i guess its a memory leak or something like this.

I am not reading the ML, so please send a CC per email.
I have the stackdump, but there is no gdb on my system, sorry. But the error occured also on my ME-Notebook, so it should appear on your system too :-S.

Regards
tilman
