Title: Dot crash on Windows
Submitter: Ryan Rhodes Newton

Subsys: Dot
Version: 1.7.6 and 1.5
System: x86-Other-Windows
Severity: major
Problem: Dot crashes when given the input file.
Input file: b36.dot
Fix:
Does not crash on unix machines - erg
Actually, it could - attach_attrs was using a buffer of size BUFSIZ,
(512 on Windows), so the program was writing off the end and corrupting
memory. Replaced with a dynamic buffer.
In addition, gdgen.c was copying labels into a buffer of size BUFSIZ.
This was fixed in version 1.34 of gdgen.c.
