buffer_info() gives overflow

[grep]

Parsing of SGF database fails with a message box:

A fatal error occured when processing /usr/local/sgf/KGS2001. Please send a bug report.

The problem occurs only with C modules compiled.

It was found that when calling C functions matchC.sortArray and matchC.buildOutput, the array buffer address from buffer_info() is sent. On ix86 Linux (and probably on 64-bit systems), this address sometimes doesn't fit to the int type.

As a temporary workaround, I've patched matchC.cc and kombilo.py for using python buffer interface (the patch is attached). Hope it will work

Some rework is still needed for 64-bit machines for using integer types of know size (e.g. int32_t instead of long)

Thanks for the report, and for the patch - that's very helpful. I will build a new version as soon as possible.
