I saw them in the beginning but they did look like a generic memory
corruption and I believe at the time those patches were submitted there
was a lingering memory corruption hitting various patches. Thus I didn't
think it was related to my patches. I've since left my work so been
taking a bit of time off and haven't looked really hard, so those
patches have been kind of lingering.


But now that you mention it I will try and take a second look to see
what might cause the memory corruption? Is there a way to force 0day to
re-run them to see whether the failure was indeed caused by my patches
or were intermittent?

Regards,
Nikolay
