Is `object' a magic word in `ddd'?

[Steve Lamont]

I've noticed that if there is a field named `object' in a struct that
`ddd' does not properly display the struct.

For instance, in the simple program

#include <stdio.h>

typedef struct {
    char *object;
    int x;
} Thing;

int main( int argc, char **argv ) 

{
    
    Thing *t = ( Thing *) malloc( sizeof( Thing ) );
    int object = 42;
    Thing thang;

    t->object = "foo";
    thang.object = "bar";

    exit( 0 );

}

doing

        graph display *t

gives a small empty box in the "Program Data" window.  Attempting to
display the struct `thang' with

        graph display thang

produces a similar result.
