spurious memory access error using localtime(), SunStudio 12, Solaris 10 x8
The following code:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <time.h>
int
main()
{
time_t t = time(NULL);
struct tm *ptm = localtime(&t);
printf("hours = %d\n", ptm->tm_hour);
}
produces the following error:
(dbx) check -access
access checking - ON
(dbx) run
Running: testtime
(process id 8489)

I *think* my code is valid and this is a bug in the memory checking tool. I am using Solaris 10 x86 on an Ultra 20 and Sun Studio 12 FCS. A related (old) thread is:
