16		Recompile cdda with that memset() in; the change is harmless in itself, in that it will not turn correct code into incorrect code: it is legit to write whatever one wants in a const char* buffer before returning it to the system. The interest lies in the fact that the written string sometimes does end up in the KDL message.. (address 0x7a7a7a7a, ascii for "zzzz"). ! It'd be interesting if that is true in your testing as well as in mine.

18	18	Anyway that suggestion is based on the assumption that knowing which variable [ 's contents] contains the corrupting buffer, is useful in identifying the code that is guilty of copying that contents into a wild place. Maybe one does not lead to the other and that assumption is wrong though..
