Re: 3.5: test suite fails

Hi Tomasz,

Thanks for the report!

Both failures are:

i.e., an internal buffer that was not freed when Bison quitted.  The
API of this module (fstrcmp) does not allow to release the memory.
I'll see if gnulib guys are ok to make it possible, and keep you posted.

Cheers!
