[GEM-dev] TextBase class

[Tim Blechmann]

hi gem-devs

first of all, sorry for posting on this thread, without reading it ...
but it might be related to the recent changes in this class

after updating to todays cvs, i'm not able to run my gem patch any more:

after this error message:
terminate called after throwing an instance of 'std::bad_alloc'
  what():  St9bad_alloc
Pd: signal 6

trying to find this with valgrind, i get the following trace:

**25539** new/new[] failed and should throw an exception, but Valgrind
   cannot throw exceptions and so is aborting instead.  Sorry.

i somehow have the feeling, that there is a really bad memory leak in
the "justify" method, that eats about all my memory in less than 15
seconds ...

no time to look into it now ... need to get proper commas first ...

cheers ... tim
