#Subject: concatenation bug in gawk 3.0.3
#Date: Thu, 18 Jun 1998 14:13:57 +0200
#From: Vasco Pedro <vp@dmat.uevora.pt>

#
#Hi,
#
#The gawk program '{print NR " " 10/NR}' will print:
#
#1 10
#5 5
#3 3.33333
#2 2.5
#2 2
#1 1.66667
#
#instead of the correct:
#
#1 10
#2 5
#3 3.33333
#4 2.5
#5 2
#6 1.66667
#
#You'll notice, on the incorrect output, that the first column is
#the first digit of the second.
#
#I think the problem comes from the way builtin variables are handled.
#Since the items to be concatenated are processed in reverse order and
#the return value of tree_eval(``NR'') is a pointer to the value part
#of `NR_node', the `unref()' of `NR_node' due to its second occurrence
#will leave a dangling pointer in `strlist'. The reason that it doesn't
#reuse the freed space with objects of the same type. (Using Electric
#Fence with EF_PROTECT_FREE set confirms that freed space is being
#accessed.)
#
#The enclosed patch (hack would be a better word to describe it) is
#all I could come up with. With it installed, things seem to work ok,
#but I doubt this is the correct way to do it. (If I treated the
#case for `Node_field_spec' as the I did others, `make check' would
#fail in several places.)
#
#Regards,
#vasco
