Yes.  And I did get other memory errors before the core, which I
should have looked at more carefully.

Looks like that might have been it.  My fault for encouraging you to
check your changes in without looking at them, and then I had to
disappear for a few hours.  I've got them now and am looking at the
code (I see a missing decref, but that should only leak memory).

Will Purify shortly.
