Very odd. The interesting thing is that hobbitd here is doing a 
re-allocation of a buffer, but asking for 0 bytes - and apparently,
HP-UX doesn't like that.

But I don't see how it can get to asking for 0 bytes in that part
of the code...

Could you start gdb again, but instead of the "bt" command do this:

gdb> fr 10
gdb> p used
gdb> p needed
gdb> p bufsz
gdb> p bufp
gdb> p buf


and mail me the output?


Thanks,
Henrik
