TEST CASE:
Under some configurations, gnusound crashes on startup when compiled with optimization (as usual for a release build). No window appears, the error message is "*** buffer overflow detected ***: /usr/bin/gnusound.real terminated." If you experience this phenomenon you can test the patch.
- Apply the submitted patch
- Call the "gnusound" built from the patched source (in the package directory, calling "src/gnusound")
- Verify the gnusound window to appear, with no "buffer overflow" in the console output.
- Ignore some messages about a "deprecated" call; there is a separate bug about this, and at the moment these messages do not interfere with the functionality. They would be quite easy to fix.

** Changed in: gnusound (Ubuntu)
       Status: Triaged => Fix Committed
