This should have been a patch to the port, not the software. I think somebody could rename the file to patch-src_eb.c and stick it in files. However, it would have been better to submit a patch against the port that creates that patch file. The port is unmaintained. The patch has no test logs, but they wouldn't help much as it fixes a runtime problem. Move to patch-ready state.

Created attachment 150843 [details] This patch solves the problem. Because of the size mismatch between int and ssize_t, the value given by a pointer to int destroys an adjacent value when it would be written as the pointer to ssize_t. Some values defined in src/eb.c are referenced as the values of ssize_t in libeb functions, causing a segmentation fault or incorrect search results.
