re all,

this patch has  not been integrated in Debian  yet, hence the Icecast2
package still segfaults after filling up all the memory with its leak.

as this  is a  critical bug,  while it seems  that the  current Debian
mantainer for the icecast2 package  has abandoned its duty, i'm kindly
asking the attention of debian  developers included in this mail, will
provide them with more details in private.

ciao
