Errors with trn..

Hi there,

I reported some earlier crashes with trn when reading large, binary 
newsgroups, and have installed the tool 'valgrind' to debug this. I just 
ran a session like that, and I finally got the following message from 
valgrind:

==21070== More than 10000000 total errors detected.  I'm not reporting any more.
==21070== Final error counts will be inaccurate.  Go fix your program!
==21070== Rerun with --error-limit=no to disable this cutoff.  Note
==21070== that errors may occur in your program without prior warning from
==21070== Valgrind, because errors are no longer being displayed.

The last error before that, listed:

==21070== Conditional jump or move depends on uninitialised value(s)
==21070==    at 0x805E83E: existing_listnum (in /home/vervoorn/bin/trn.new)
==21070==    by 0x8050D43: rc_to_bits (in /home/vervoorn/bin/trn.new)
==21070==    by 0x8074BC9: thread_open (in /home/vervoorn/bin/trn.new)
==21070==    by 0x8066244: access_ng (in /home/vervoorn/bin/trn.new)
==21070==    by 0x8064991: do_newsgroup (in /home/vervoorn/bin/trn.new)
==21070==    by 0x807EE48: newsgroup_selector (in /home/vervoorn/bin/trn.new)
==21070==    by 0x808B1F7: do_multirc (in /home/vervoorn/bin/trn.new)
==21070==    by 0x808B937: main (in /home/vervoorn/bin/trn.new)

This doesn't look good.

What are the chances of someone doing some cleanup on trn? :)

Failing that, what would be an alternative for trn?

I've looked at slrn and tin, but don't really like them.

Regards, Patrick.
