  It was noticed on big-endian systems that msgfmt would fail with the
following error:

msgfmt: gconv_builtin.c:70: __gconv_get_builtin_trans: Assertion `cnt < sizeof (map) / sizeof (map[0])' failed.
Aborted (core dumped)

This is only seen on installed systems because it was due to a
corrupted gconv-modules.cache.  iconvconfig had the following issues
(it was specifically freeing fulldir that caused this issue, but other
cleanups are also needed) that this patch fixes.

- Add prefix only if dir starts with '/'
- Use asprintf instead of mempcpy so that the directory string is NULL
  terminated
- Make a copy of the directory reference in new_module so that fulldir
  can be freed within the same scope in handle_dir.

Sorry, why is this copy needed?

Thanks,

That's the fulldir reference that goes from here into the symtab and so 
on.  Later once the handle_dir function returns and the cache file is 
being written out, this pointer is referenced and by then it has already 
been freed.

I see, it's returned to the caller via new_module->directory.

Apparently we do not free modules, so this doesn't add a new leak.

Patch looks okay to me then.

Thanks,
Florian
