This lib I wrote about 8 years ago and about 2 years ago I converted
them to the Tcl_Obj side of the force. It has been working without a
problem since then on 32bit machines. This year I inherited a 64bit
machine plus our servers are 64 bit machines too. Until now I didn't
encounter any problem with this lib. So in the end it is not an option
because I have quite a lot of code depending on this lib.

Anyway I tried to simplify my problem so I implemented most of the c
part in tcl and replaced the call to the lib with this critcl code and
I keep having the same problem... Any thoughts?
...

Is this a 64bit compile of Tcl?

Are all of the libraries/extensions you are pulling in 64bit compiles?

Are you using threads? If so, are all of the 64bit implementation of any libraries/extensions you are pulling in thread safe?

Try compiling Tcl with the memory debug flags set and running it that way.

The only other thing I see is that the function mstrlen returns a type size_t and it is assigned into a long -- why not have them the same type?
