Purely accidental. It freed the eprog, then allocated some more memory
(sometimes for another eprog(!)) and later copied the freed eprog. If
the thing allocated into the freed eprog was something looking
(almost) like a valid eprog, it worked. With something in the body of
the function this (sometimes) happened, sometimes not. While debugging
this, I had cases where it allocated something sensible into the freed
eprog, sometimes not, both with and without something in the function
body.
Bye
