OK, I was thinking the error was in the function prototype, after all that was what was given, however it is further down (rusty!):
Code:
              {
              char *tmp; 

              if ((tmp = strchr(dest,'/'))) {
                tmp[0] = '\0';
                instance = tmp + 1;
              }

Specifically the tmp assignment.

The phenomena is explained here by the looks... GCC 4.4 Release Series — Porting to the New Tools

i-ls(1) 						      General Commands Manual							   i-ls(1)

NAME
i-ls - display file stat and checksum information for files SYNOPSIS
i-ls [-s] filename i-ls [-s] dirname Specify a filename for i-ls to examine, or specify a directory with dirname to examine all the files in the directory. -s Do not show/calculate checksums for all regular files. DESCRIPTION
The integrit system detects intrusion by detecting when trusted files have been altered. integrit records information about files in a database. i-ls allows the user to see that information for live files. The output syntax is the same as that of integrit. EXAMPLES
i-ls /tmp/foo.txt shows file stat attributes for the file, "/tmp/foo.txt". i-ls /tmp shows file stat attributes for all files in the directory, "/tmp". i-ls -s /tmp shows file stat attributes for all files in the directory, "/tmp", also including also checksums for all regular files. AUTHOR
