[pgpool-general: 1956] memory overrun bug?

Hello,

I noticed what appears to be a bug in watchdog/wd_interlock.c.  In 
wd_init_interlock, a shared memory segment of size 8 is created 
(assuming a 64-bit machine).  Then a few lines later memset is called, 
clearing 40 bytes starting at that shared memory location. Shouldn't the 
allocation and memset both use "sizeof(bool) * WD_MAX_LOCK_NUM"?

Regards,
Sean
