I think I figured it out.  sobomax@ changed how much memory exec_copyin_args() 
and exec_free_args() allocated and freed without updating 
freebsd32_exec_copyin_args() and linux_exec_copyin_args(), so more memory was 
freed than was allocated which would free memory out from other execs.  Patch 
is below.  Let me know if it fixes the problem.
