I did do a PR that fixed that field... but is has a rather large knock on effect so I deleted it. I think a more conservative approach would be...

What I found that was even more interesting is that the file in the original post was empty, not just the wrong size. If I ask super collider for the...

Sure, but there's no validation to stop this. Also, the majority of primitives just use strlen and don't access the size member, as if this is a known issue. To...

In many primitives and places the code stores a symbol in a temporary char[256], meaning there'd be a branch and an optional heap allocation for large symbols.

I can't see a solution mentioned here? I can see two options: 1. Symbols should be limited to 256 chars and class names to 250 (256 - "Meta_"), and this...

My apologise for leaving this so long — life. In the mean time I've thought about this some more and there are many quarks that this would break, here is...

Yes I'm closing this because I no longer think it is the correct approach and would break quarks.

On my system, scsynth does **not** start jack. So I wouldn't consider this a bug, at least a bug in supercollider itself, it might be an issue of jack configuration.

I wouldn't touch something just to add const, unless it was in a commit by itself so it can be added to the blame ignore list. I don't think having...
