 Yes, this patch fixes it on NetBSD 4.0BETA2 and MacOS X (10.4.9PPC tested).
 Since there's no indication when this fix will be incorporated into a new
 source release, maybe it could be imported into a local pkgsrc patch?
 
 There are two patch links shown on the web page.  The _second_ one is the
 correct one.  Filename:  "irssi-0.8.10-glibc-invalid-pointer-free.patch"
 
 MacOS X 10.4.9's /usr/bin/patch (GNU patch) couldn't find the file to
 patch when fed the patch file directly.  Typing the path to the file
 when prompted permitted the patch to apply.
