Description Joe Marcus Clarke 2002-03-28 19:10:01 UTC 
On -CURRENT, the theme-switcher-capplet will core dump with an abort trap
due to a bad free() of a static allocated array.  This patch fixes this
problem by using malloc() to allocate lineptr instead of using static memory.
Another way to fix this is to simply remove the call to free(lineptr).

How-To-Repeat: Try to select a new theme on -CURRENT.
