Running some software that is perfectly OK on another MIPS platform, and somewhere along the way malloc causes this error: WARNING: Process [a.out] pid 17019 sent SIGSEGV because it exceeded its maximum process/stack size :it's not the first time that malloc is called in the run. :the stack and data spaces are both large enough (2^19 Kb) that there is no way i can conceive of that this relatively small process should run out of space. :we've tried using the other malloc from <malloc.h> and also using mallopt to make sure free-ed memory was still usable in case space was prematurely freed all to (obviously) no avail. anyone else have/had this problem, a solution, or even a wild guess could they please tell me. thanx. angus@godzilla.cgl.rmit.oz.au
