Known bug? Solaris 11.2 SRU 6.5, x86, Studio 12.4

Caution: I just killed my server running a.out a few times, prstat showed:

   PID USERNAME  SIZE   RSS STATE   PRI NICE      TIME  CPU PROCESS/NLWP
 25332 raider       64G   58G cpu2      1    0   0:04:48 1.4% a.out/1

$ cat ascii.c

#include <ctype.h>

#include <locale.h>

#include <stdio.h>

int main(void)

{

        int i = 0;

        (void)setlocale(LC_ALL, "");

        for (; i<128; i++) {

                if (isprint(i))

                        (void)printf("%c", i);

                else

                        (void)printf("?");

                if (i % 32 == 31)

                        (void)printf("\n");

        }

        return 0;

}

$ cc -m64 -g -z aslr=enable ascii.c

$ discover -w - a.out

$ ./a.out

Yes, it is a know problem but thank you for reporting it. We have fixed it in the development version. The problem is because the heap allocations are not as "straightforward" was they are without ASLR.The workaround for now is to not use ASLR for binaries that you are going to Discover.
