Hey Volker,

I know you may be adverse to this but I already had to solve
this in Lsassd's implementation of the wbclient API.
The memory routines are very simple.  You are welcome to them.
I went with solution (1).

http://git.likewiseopen.org/?p=likewise-open.git;a=blob;f=lsass/interop/wbclient/lsa_wbc_memory.c;h=e9e4e7717205688b978cafcf2f4d62a180f893e0;hb=HEAD

I know that you may decide not to due to the Likewise copyright.
But it's LGPLv2.1 so I'll leave it up to you.





cheers, jerry
