*sigh* I'll take this out. I was trying to track down my malloc problems.
The reason I didn't use the lisp.h one was that it sent malloc into endless
loops. I'm guessing that this isn't really an lstream problem?
yup, esp. since the lstream code has been stable for quite a long time and no
one's touched it recently, and it's crashing in glyphs code, which is most likely
trashing some memory somewhere.
if you trace through the gmalloc code and you find one location that's definitely
gotten trashed, try setting a watch point (i.e. break on write) on that
particular location. if you're lucky, this will pinpoint exactly who's trashing
that location.
