Subject: [PATCH] Fix double free in compute_abbrevs
PR32934 reports an abort in obstack_free after a double free.
The relevant code is in compute_abbrevs:
...
t = (struct abbrev_tag *)
obstack_alloc (&ob2,
sizeof (*t)
+ (max_nattr + 4) * sizeof (struct abbrev_attr)
+ (max_nattr + 4) * sizeof (int64_t));
...
obstack_free (&ob2, (void *) t);
cuarr = (dw_cu_ref *) obstack_alloc (&ob2, ncus * sizeof (dw_cu_ref));
...
obstack_free (&ob2, (void *) t);
...
The following happens:
- t is allocated
- t is freed
- cuarr is allocated
- t is freed.
Usually, cuarr == t, so effectively cuarr is freed.
But in the case of the PR, cuarr != t, so t is freed twice, triggering the
abort.
Fix this by freeing cuarr instead.
Tested on x86_64-linux.

* dwz.c (compute_abbrevs): Free cuarr instead of double-freeing t.
