[mgp-users 1503] MagicPoint segfaults on x86_64: patch to fix it

[Kevin.Buckley@ecs.vuw.ac.nz]

Hi there,

it seems that a number of people have been seeing segfaults
of MagicPoint, segfaults which I have only seen when compiling
on an x86_64 platform, eg

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mgp/+bug/63976

I think I have just found a fix for that problem and enclose
a patch below.

I also wanted to point out that you still do not appear to have
added my "feature" patch from 2009 judging from the current
snapshots, so I thought I would "nudge" you on that too (ha-ha!)

All the best and thanks again for MagicPoint.
