[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #47372] Memory leaks and segmentation faults in Octave

[Rik]

Update of bug #47372 (project octave):

                  Status:               Confirmed => In Progress

Follow-up Comment #12:

I'm attaching a quick patch which seems to resolve all of the segfaults as
well as the memory leaks in the image directory.  This is probably not the way
to do it--I just did it as a quick test--but if it resolves the numerous
strage crashes on Windows platforms then this might be worth stuffing in to a
4.0.1-rc5 candidate.
