Hi!
I was applying the patch to upgrade XFree 4.0.0 to 4.0.1, but patch Seg Faulted.
I did some digging on the code and found that when using Plan A, sometimes,
re_input() was being called without having previously invoked scan_input() to
init the buffers. The result was it trying to free twice the same memory
location.
The patch attached modifies re_input() so it doesn't free twice the same memory
block. I did it this way instead of trying to change the whole logic in patch.c
for simplicity reasons, but note that I don't know if a similar problem could
affect Plan B.
