I am concerned by the "malloc wrapped" message -- what is exactly happening, and can i fix it in some way ? I haven't seen any problem so far but it might just be that it corrupts some pieces of code/mfs that i have not used yet. thanks luigi -----------------------------------+------------------------------------- Luigi RIZZO .
