Re: error: modified (page-) pointer

:Does anybody knows what this error means?

:*** in free(): error: modified (page-) pointer

:It seems to appear sometimes. In my case, it does while I try to compile 
:pgadmin3 with wxWidgets. I also get it with the samples program of 
:wxWidgets. I then tried to compile wxWidgets myself without thread 
:support and the error is still there.

:Thanks.

    That typically means there's a software bug in the program that is
    corrupting memory.  e.g. like a use-after-free case or a dangling
    pointer or something like that.
