But I have a different problem:</DIV><DIV><BR class="khtml-block-placeholder"></DIV><DIV>I am working on a Ruby wrapper and it works fine functionally but whenever the Ruby garbage collector kicks in I got an BUS error. I had my wrapper code checked by someone who does that very ofter and he says it's ok, so the problem must be either in the way I call fribidi stuff or in fribidi. Attached the code. Maybe someone can check if I do it ok.</DIV><DIV>Any help would be very appreciated.</DIV><DIV><BR class="khtml-block-placeholder"></DIV><DIV>-------------</DIV><DIV>#include "ruby.h"</DIV><DIV>#include "fribidi/fribidi.h"</DIV><DIV>#include "fribidi/fribidi_types.h"</DIV><DIV><BR class="khtml-block-placeholder"></DIV><DIV>static VALUE t_convert(VALUE klass, VALUE obj)</DIV><DIV>{</DIV><DIV> VALUE ret;</DIV><DIV> FriBidiChar *visual_str;</DIV><DIV> FriBidiChar *us;</DIV><DIV> int len_unicode;</DIV><DIV> int len_utf8;</DIV><DIV> char* result;</DIV><DIV> FriBidiCharType base=FRIBIDI_TYPE_L;</DIV><DIV> us= (FriBidiChar*) malloc( RSTRING(obj)->len*4+1);
