Hi Tim,
I saw your posting on the namd wiki and want you to know that I to have
seen this problem or one very similar in mm_mallac. David Kunzman
(charm++ developer) worked on it for a couple of days last week.
I do not know what the final results were, other than the compiler makes
some default assumptions about casting a void * to a char *. It instead
casts it to an int and wipes out half of the memory address. So what is
actually returned is entirely bogus.
What compiler are you using?
Brian
