Subject: [PATCH] Remove shadowing variable from traverse_trees()
Date: Thu, 04 Jan 2007 19:33:36 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <459D4880.9070804@lsrfire.ath.cx> (raw)

The variable named entry is allocated using malloc() and then
forgotten, it being shadowed by an automatic variable of the
same name.  Fixing the array size at 3 worked so far because
the only caller of traverse_trees() needed only as much
entries.  Simply remove the shadowing varaible and we're able
to traverse more than three trees and save stack space at the
same time!
