dgp	1446838d71	To use a Tcl_Command token [aka (Command )] for epoch checking, we must not permit it to be freed while we hold it or else it could be mistaken for another token allocated later that just happens to reside at the same address. (Command ) preservation machinery already exists, just need to use it. An extension facing the same problem might have to rely on command delete traces. Earlier revisions used (Namespace *) lifetime to achieve the same results, but that's really an indirect (possibly non-robust) path to achieving the proper goal. Valgrind is happy now.	2016-07-07 18:44:56 +00:00
