        Thanks a lot, didn't know that. :-)

        :-) 'sc' could not give me much. lots of time it seg-faults in free(), 
malloc() and realloc(). I know the reason since 4-5 days ago, but I 
could not find why.

        I found the reason by "accident". :-) The problem was a method returned 
'false' instead of 'true'. Incredible, eh? :-)
