I keep binaries of gnuplot 3.7 and 4.0 around for testing
backward compatibilities. Up until now I haven't had any
problem with them, other than making sure that I have copies
of the relevant older shared libraries as well.
However, I recently upgraded my linux systems to Mandriva 2006.
Now I am getting very strange error messages from 4.0
gnuplot> set term x11 font "arial"
Terminal type set to 'x11'
Options are '0 font "arial"'
gnuplot> plot x
gnuplot> *** glibc detected *** free(): invalid pointer: 0xb7f9561c ***
This seems to be coming from gnuplot_x11, which immediately dies.
Yes, it's the 4.0 version of gnuplot_x11.
The same binary runs fine if I boot into the previous version
of the operating system.
