Hate to break it to you -- we've all been here, it turns out that what
you think is a bug in libc/the kernel/etc. is _almost always_ actually
a bug in your application.  Even when you're sure that _this_ time it
really is a bug in libc/the kernel/etc., it still _almost always_
turns out not to be.  Maybe it really is a bug in libc, but chances
are low...

Usually what's really happening is that you called something wrong, it
worked on the assumption that you called it right, and eventually it
crashed when it ran into your bad data...

Ok, i give up... I'll try harder to find the bug...

Anyway, thanks for not frowning upon me for asking libc questions here :D
I'm just a web developer wanting to learn c++ and contribute to monotone...
