[nos-bbs] Netrom Issues and G8BPQ #define or not ?

So I am experiencing some very odd crashes from time to time, there is
a bizareness to them, so I am wondering how many of you running JNOS
with BPQ partners and you guys are using netrom to connect, how many
are compiling their JNOS systems with #define G8BPQ in their config.h, or
you are leaving it #undef ? I have to try and rule this out, but 'what 
if a BPQ
specific NR flag comes in' and IF JNOS is not compiled to deal with it, 
might
be a small chance it does not like it ?

Part of this problem is that if I did not know any better, malloc is 
also returning
a pointer value of 0x100000000 ! The only reference to this I have been able
to find is a buggy malloc library (from 2010 I think), that can't be, no 
way.

Usually my JNOS will crash every ~5 days from the above pointer value, but
then it also crashes the odd time when a Netrom Connect Request (L4) comes
in, and then sure enough that pointer value shows up. Tearing out my hair !
