Hi,
	I'm working with pvm3.3.6 on a set of HP9000/800
machines with HP-UX 9.04. I've set the compile options
for pvm to be :
	OPTIONS =       -g -DUSE_PVM_ALLOC
I sometimes get a message like :

"i_free: scribbled in 0x40041780[4104+15]" 

I realise this means some mem-allocation error
but where is it and why/how is it being caused??
I havent been able to trace the problem as the 
core does not get dumped - it merely hangs!!

Does anyone else have similar problems ?? 
Has anyone seen such messages before ??

Hope to get some clues on this one !

Krishnan.
