[Gretl-devel] Re: spurious description string in pointerized series arg

Some memory was getting accessed after being freed, in the context

a "compiled genr" with a series target. That should now be fixed in
git. BTW here's a minimal case that exhibited the problem but now
works OK:
<hansl>
function void bugtest (series *e)
e = normal()
end function
nulldata 10
series e
loop 2
bugtest(&e)
endloop
eval getinfo(e).description
</hansl>
Hey, I was already proud of stripping down my original code that
triggered the problem... I guess the expected value for the description
in your example is "normal()" -- to turn it into a test script, I mean.
cheers
