I tried running rcorder under valgrind and it showed me massive
leaks/double-frees etc. unfortunately I am not able to run valgrind on recent
7-current (when I start it it just creates 2.8G coredump)
it would be great to run coverity on rcorder or something to reveal the bugs. I
am willing to hack on it but I'd appreciate some help (either the valgrind
running or list of coverity revealed bugs)
