Hi Again,

Some additional feedback from the OpenBSD experts ...

So, signerd is using memory after it has already been freed.

As I understand it, the OpenBSD free() call overwrites freed memory with the
0xdf pattern - this is done specifically to catch use-after-free errors.
This would then fit with your only having seen this issue on OpenBSD
systems.

Just FYI.

Cheers,
Robb.
