In a fresh build of the current texinfo cvs, on a mostly up-to-date i386
debian system, processing my chart.texi file below into html produces a
malloc error,
gunzip chart.texi.gz
makeinfo --html chart.texi
=> glibc.out messages attached below
Running under electric-fence gives a gdb trap efence.out below; it
claims the store in add_char,
output_paragraph[output_paragraph_offset] = character;
has gone beyond the malloced size of the block. The contents of
output_paragraph at that point suggest it might be somewhere in the big
@multitable within "@node Yahoo Exchanges". (I haven't tried to cut it
down to isolate.)
I upgraded to glibc 2.5 (from 2.3.2) recently, so maybe that's a factor.
The current debian makeinfo 4.8 seems fine (with that new libc).
