[Q] seg-fault in malloc? |

Apologies, this isn't the right place to ask this question, but I'm running
a Swarm model and getting seg-faults during a call to malloc (from inside
a Swarm function). I've never seent this before -- anyone have any ideas?
Heres a bt:
Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

Some general questions that might shed light on the matter:
I use xmalloc (provided by the Swarm libraries) to allocate memory in
some of my objects. Is this frowned upon? What should I be using?
Is it OK to free a pointer allocated using xmalloc? (Is there some other
function than free that I should use to do this?)
Thanks in advance,
Gary
