    <p>Hi Bron!</p>
    <p><br>
    </p>
    <p>Yes I wrote to Ellie, Ken and you last week on Monday directly,
      because I didn't know if really sending an email directly to the
      list was the proper way of handling it. I preferred to send you
      first <br>
    </p>
    <p>an email and later sent a second one saying that please excuse me
      if I didn't had to send it directly you or whatever.... but as I
      didn't receive any answer, so then I have finally sent this email.</p>
    <p><br>
    </p>
    <p>By the way, now talking about it, what's the proper way of
      handling a bug submit?. Directly here, through bugzilla or how
      it's better doing it?.</p>
    <p><br>

    <p>Best regards,<br>

            </div>
            <div style="font-family:Arial;"><br>
            </div>
            <div style="font-family:Arial;">and it's memory allocated
              (which was in search_init function), I tried to allocate
              10 bytes more for that pointer. After doing it, there were
              no more issues. So I tried allocating just one byte more
              which it seemed<br>
            </div>
            <div style="font-family:Arial;"><br>
            </div>
            <div style="font-family:Arial;">to be enough too (at least
              for the patterns I have searched for). At this moment I
              understood this pointer (s->starts which was a
              search_state->substr pointer inside the search_state
              structure) was not having<br>
            </div>
            <div style="font-family:Arial;"><br>
            </div>
            <div style="font-family:Arial;">enough room for all the
              content needed to be stored, or at least accesed when
              calling it. I checked then the code of Cyrus 2.3.18 and
              2.3.19 but didn't see any kind of differences in the part
              of the memory<br>
            </div>
            <div style="font-family:Arial;"><br>
            </div>
            <div style="font-family:Arial;">allocation (in
              search_init()) or usage (in bytesearch) for s->starts.
              I deciced to check Cyrus 2.4 code and I saw it's room was
              being allocated the following way :<br>
            </div>
            <div style="font-family:Arial;"><br>
            </div>
            <div style="font-family:Arial;"><br>
            </div>
            <div style="font-family:Arial;">    s->starts =
              xmalloc(s->max_start * sizeof(size_t));<br>
            </div>
            <div style="font-family:Arial;"><br>
            </div>
            <div style="font-family:Arial;"><br>
            </div>
            <div style="font-family:Arial;">instead of that in 2.3 was
              done :<br>
            </div>
            <div style="font-family:Arial;"><br>
            </div>
            <div style="font-family:Arial;"><br>
            </div>
            <div style="font-family:Arial;">    s->starts =
              xmalloc(s->max_start * sizeof(int));<br>
            </div>
            <div style="font-family:Arial;"><br>
            </div>
            <div style="font-family:Arial;"><br>
            </div>
            <div style="font-family:Arial;">So I understood s->starts
              should be allocated to the size of a size_t type defined
              variable size, instead to the size of an integer variable
              n times. After replacing it, has seen definitively all
              seemed to be<br>
            </div>
            <div style="font-family:Arial;"><br>
            </div>
            <div style="font-family:Arial;">working. So wouldn't Cyrus
              2.3 sources have this allocation in search_init done with
              sizeof(size_t) instead of the sizeof(int)?. I think this
              is important because else, when the first character of a<br>
            </div>
            <div style="font-family:Arial;"><br>
            </div>
            <div style="font-family:Arial;">pattern is repeated more
              than one time, the pattern has a would say patlen of 8-9
              bytes and matches exist in the mailbox, that search would
              end up with a proccess died due to a signal 11.<br>

            <div style="font-family:Arial;">My env is FreeBSD RELENG_9_0
