Re: readshortcut crashes with updated cygwin-1.5.18-1 (cygutils maintainer -- RFA patch enclosed)

It's a readshortcut double free problem.  As mentioned in another
message, cygwin is using a new version of malloc and it appears to be
more sensitive to these programming errors.

The patch below fixes it.

Chuck, ok to check in?  If so, I'll also get rid of all of the ^Ms in the
readshortcut files.

Please do. Fix seems obvious after the fact -- but then, they all do. I'll release a new version soon -- along with zlib, ncurses, libtiff.
