>Description:
In top's status line, the following message is redrawn at each update:
top in free(): warning: page is already free.
Also, when starting top, it says:
top in free(): warning: chunk is already free.
Top seems to operate correctly other than this, and I'm not seeing a memory
leak. I'm going to today's sources and trying again.
>How-To-Repeat:
make build - There's nothing special going on here that I know of.
>Fix:
Unknown as yet.
