------- Comment #2 from jbottorff at xsigo.com  2006-08-23 03:06 -------
A fix seems to be replacing the null test of p_list_item in al_mad.c (two
places) with something like below. A text pattern scan of the sources for any
other occurences might be appropriate too.

        if( p_list_item == cl_qlist_end( &h_mad_svc->send_list ) )
// bad  if( !p_list_item )

I'll report back in a day or two on how this effects shutdown stability.
