hey everyone,

  i decided to upgrade to djgppv2.03, and GCC 2.95.2 in the one hit

  bad idea!

  cuz now i have no idea which change caused my problems.  i have a textfile
{de}/compression program that i wrote, and it used to work fantastically with
all kinds of files, even very large ones.

  when compiled with my new installation, i get SIGSEGV in the function free()

  this even happens when free is called by functions such as fclose(), rather
then being called by my functions.  i don't see any reason for this to be
happening, and i'm wondering if anyone has some clues for me..?

thanks heaps!
love,
jazir.
