>Description:
The attached sample program shows that strstreambuf frees his buffer also he was forced to frozen mode by calling the str() method. Because of that the generated string can be overwritten by code that reallocates this memory.

This is a regression to gcc 3.1!

I have not checked that, but possibly this is related to http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2002-05/msg01204.html and/or http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/libstdc++/2002-06/msg00089.html.
>How-To-Repeat:
# g++ -o strstreambug strstreambug.cc
[header warning]
# ./strstreambug
s(0x804a118):Text
s(0x804a118):ñòóôõö÷øùúûüýþÿ

should be (gcc-3.1):
# ./strstreambug
s(0x804a118):Text
s(0x804a118):Text
