thanks, rebaseall makes it working - for a while ;-)
after reviewing my code i found a real big memory allocation:
char* line = new char[std::string().max_size()];
which allocates 1073741820 in my case! well this is really much more
memory that i need for a single line read from another process using
popen()! changing this to a more reasonable size makes everything work,
even without rebaseall!
but what's the real reason why popen() results in the address
conflict and system() does not?!
