[bug-mailutils] Bug in libmu_scm - mailutils guile bindings

[Mark Skilbeck]

Hi, all.

While using Mailutils in the prototype for a project I'm working on
using Guile, I found a "show stopper" bug. I've attached the files
necessary to reproduce the bug, test.scm and testmbox. Also attached
is a GDB backtrace of the segfault.

Using the provided test files, you can reproduce the bug via the
following steps:

0. Modify test.scm to point to the testmbox file
1. Run the guile interpreter
2. (load "test.scm")
NB. At this point there should be no error, everything runs as
expected.
3. (load "test.scm")

The final step causes the problem for me. I, in my poorly informed
position, suspect it to be a problem with garbage collection / freeing
previously opened messages.

If you need any more information, please let me know. I do hope we can
remedy the issue as I'd really like to use the Mailutils library.

Thanks.

P.S. I hope you don't mind the size of the testmbox file - I have
reproduced the number of emails present in the original mbox that
caused the issue, with any sensitive information removed.
