            Bug ID: 30332
           Summary: "Allocation in an Obstack" node refers to example in
                    wrong location
           Product: glibc
           Version: unspecified
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: manual
          Assignee: unassigned at sourceware dot org
          Reporter: GavinSmith0123 at gmail dot com
                CC: mtk.manpages at gmail dot com
  Target Milestone: ---

The "Allocation in an Obstack" node in the "libc" manual has the following
text:

Contrast this with the previous example of ‘savestring’ using ‘malloc’
(*note Basic Allocation::).

(online at 
https://www.gnu.org/software/libc/manual/html_node/Allocation-in-an-Obstack.html)

However, the "Basic Allocation" node, which documents malloc, does not have
such an example. I found the example is actually in the next node, in "Malloc
Examples". The cross-reference should be changed to refer to the right place.

--- Comment #1 from Andreas Schwab <schwab@linux-m68k.org> ---
It was correct when the example was added (in commit e556ca8a61), but commit
42e6ba0ed0 changed that (more than 30 years ago).
