------- Comment #5 from stephentfisher@xxxxxxxxx 2007-11-28 07:42 GMT -------
I installed Fedora Core 8 Linux on a Parallels virtual machine on my Mac. Now
I can reproduce the crash! However, it isn't a simple bug so gdb is just
telling me that it ends up crashing in malloc_consolidate. This means that
memory was corrupted at some time before that malloc_consolidate call was
called. I tried to replicate the problem running through Valgrind to no avail
and when linking with electric fence, it just runs out of memory while
launching Wireshark. I did manage to make some progress by setting the
environment variable MALLOC_CHECK_, which does some simple extra checking when
doing malloc and related operations. Running with MALLOC_CHECK_ through gdb
yields some promising results (see below). However, I have run out of time at
the moment to work on this.. hopefully I'll have some time again soon.
