??Huh??
Sorry, but no matter how I read that question, I ask what
___cxa_bad_typeid means and nothing else.

Because it never appeared before, it seems to indicate part of the
problem why 'free' crashes, and because I don't know what it means,
couldn't find any information about it, but want to know *anyway*. Are
these enough reasons for you, or can we just say that you don't know
what '___cxa_bad_typeid' means and were pointing out the obvious as it
was something you did know ???
