Re: Bug List

[Benjamin Kahn <xkahn cybersites com>]

	I reported a long while back a bug in glib with threads and
giochannels.  I beleive the problem was that, in some cases, a network
read was reported, when none existed.  The problem was an uninitialized
structure, but should never occur.  Did that ever get fixed?  Do I need to
dig out the bug report?
