This also affects all structures with static strings, such as depmiss, conflict, etc. This should help a lot with memory usage, and hopefully make things a bit more "idiot proof".
Currently our pactest pass/fail rate is identical before and after this patch. This is not to say it is a perfect patch- I have yet to pull valgrind out. However, this should be quite safe to use in all situations from here on out, and we can start plugging the memleaks.

Let me know if anything seems weird in this patch.
Wow. What was the kicker here? I know I had like 80% of pactests failing, presumably to segfaults, last I looked. You said you got it to like 66%, and now a day later it's back to normal. There had to be one big impedance here.
