Hi,

I recently started having problems with mythtv head (since 9093)
mythbackend 'crashes' with a glibc error/detection:

2006-02-22 20:52:08.352 Using runtime prefix = /usr

you see a long pause here it means the Schema is already locked and is
being upgraded by another Myth process.

Starting up as the master server.
*** glibc detected *** corrupted double-linked list: 0x0810aa28 ***
Aborted

The system is Debian (testing/etch) based and I optimise compilation for size.

If I 'make install' 0.19, mythbackend starts without a problem, so I
suspect it's in one of the shared libraries...

Anyone any idea where to start finding the root of this problem?
Could -Os be the problem? (gcc 4.0.3 20060128 (prerelease) (Debian 4.0.2-8))

Apart from the above I started having problems switching channels in
the last couple of svn versions (I think 9092), so I fell back to
0.19, which luckily is stable and working.

The schema version mismatch is probably due to the back-and-forth
switching between head and 0.19 I guess.

Hope anybody can shed some light in this problem?


Grtz.
Martin
