| Description: |
When a thread is finalized, the routine FsThrExirProc() gets called to finalize the ThreadSpecificData of tclIOUtil.c. This routine decrements a refcount on the master copy of cwdPathPtr, but fails to NULL out its cached reference. This permits attempts to use that invalid pointer which leads to panics. Here's a patch to complete the finalization. The same patch ought to apply to the HEAD which appears to suffer from the same bug. | |||
