------- Comment #10 from stephentfisher@xxxxxxxxx  2007-12-10 23:24 GMT -------
malloc() is not returning any errors when run by itself instead of through
g_malloc.

I haven't been able to reproduce this problem again on OS X since I did the
first time.  I have yet to reproduce it on Windows Vista.  It is easily and
constantly reproducible on Fedora Core Linux in a Parallels VM for me.

I wrote a program that did 100,000 mallocs on Linux and never got a duplicate
like we're getting in Wireshark with the COPY_ADDRESS macro.  I noticed that
most, if not all, the other GTK code using the COPY_ADDRESS macro never bothers
to free the memory it allocated!  Perhaps that's why only voip_calls.c exhibits
the problem when freeing ;)

My Parallels trial license ran out, but I'll be getting a full license soon
anyway.  I'll continue working on the problem at that point unless I can
duplicate it again on OS X or Windows.
