Make crashed in the routine free() when using the shell function.  The
problem was traced to a pointer being incremented and then passed to
the free() routine.  The context diffs to function.c are as follows:

*** function.c1.1    Wed Nov 29 15:47:39 1989
--- function.c1.2    Wed Nov 29 15:48:07 1989

                if (i > 0 && buffer[i - 1] == '\n')
                  buffer[--i] = '\0';
!               for (p = buffer; (p = index (buffer, '\n')) != 0; buffer = ++p)
                  *p = ' ';
                o = variable_buffer_output (o, buffer, i);
