Hi, Apologies if this is in the wrong discussion group... I think I fixed a bug in the xfstt server that's causing it to hang the X server at random, most usually when viewing things using Courier New-regular font. How should I proceed with this? The author of the code called realloc() but neglected to fix up some pointers to the data within hence causing merry SIGSEGV's at random. I suspect on other platforms their realloc() code doesn't shift locations if one is shrinking memory, but this is purely a hypothesis. Who should I mail to get the code fixed?
