Geert,

This doesn't make sense to me. msg is allocated with a starting value, then the relevant feature names are added one at a time in the for loop, allocating a new string each time.  Where is msg getting double-freed?  ISTM your change will leak all of the strings except the last one.

Regards,
John Ralls
