Hello,
This is my first contact and mail with this mailing list, to summarize i'm a coder maintening a personnal home server using several GNU tools since the late 90's.
I build LIBMSI-0.4.8 in a chroot jail (gcc 4.5.2/libc 2.13/binutils 2.21/make 3.82) with an athlon architecture on ext3 FS and, as root, got one failed test on tests/parser :

Therefore, i check one of the failed output :
[root@pompomgalli] cat test/parser.out/LIBSMI-TEST-003-MIB.err
[root@pompomgalli] cat test/parser.out/LIBSMI-TEST-003-MIB.expect

I then launch manually the LIBSMI-TEST-003-MIB test :

I have 'straced' the test but found nothing noticeable. As i am too lazy to launch gdb, i have first googling about related troubles regarding libsmi and found Vincent Bernat mail (http://www.ibr.cs.tu-bs.de/pipermail/libsmi/2010-August/001214.html).
So, starting from his premises, i looked after the handling of module's nodes trees, and, to resume, seen that Vincent Bernat seems to be right when commenting the freeNodeTree and smiFree calls in loadModule (data.c). The nodes allocated for the module could have been referenced by the parser and used later in the parse process (case 344 in parser-smi.c), therefore they should not be freed at the end of the loadModule call but at the end of the parse process (imho).
While i was investigate, i have also noticed that the checkObjects method in parser-smi.c does not handle the case of a malformed tree where a node could not have been linked to the root tree while searching possibly incorrect oidlen/oid values.
I suggest theses two patchs to address that :

For parser-smi.c, it seems that quitting the loop when the node's parent is null is right regarding the goal to control that the tree does not exceed 128 nodes. Perhaps it could be useful to add an error message when this loop detects an 'unlinked' node.
With theses patchs, the parser test gives the following results :

Apparently, it is something else, i could investigate if it seems pertinent. I will maintain my chroot environment for few days, therefore i could make more tests if needed.
