I'm running a NetBSD-1.1B/i386 with phkmalloc and would really
appreciate it when you could send me a test program that fails on your
machine. Looks like a bug in libc for me, not in phkmalloc. I would be
interested to see how the normal malloc could get around without
dumping core.
Thanks in advance
