Well, the change I made worked with my first test file but bombed out when I compiled without -g. The real bug is more obvious, however. The offending line was actually the next one: incrementing the pointer returned by calloc and then later trying to call cfree() with the incremented value is guaranteed to not do what you want (erratically). The line in freearr() which reads: cfree(sep); should be: cfree(--sep);
