You and I are getting different results. You're using whats in CVS, and 
the one line change i mentioned in the last mail, right? 

i used to run into something that sounds like your bug, but i dont remember the details, its been months since i messed with it.

personally, i break things, then valgrind them to death. i'll let you know when i have progress with this.
