Quake2 memory allocation issues

Description

The vast majority of Quake2 crashes seem to take place during various memory allocations and they all seem to involve the failure of an assertion in BPrivate::superblock::isValid(). The crashing seems to be random so sometimes it'll get far enough to actually load a map and allow me to play.

The backtraces below only show the failure of the "_numBlocks > 0" assertion but the other two in isValid() fail on occasion as well.

I can't reproduce this. There seem to be other issues with running Quake 2, however:

  • Corrupted audio
  • Game freezes as soon as I try to start a game.

I think audio has been fixed, IIRC. The game freezing is a totally separate issue.
