Summary: problem in _sre.c

Initial Comment:
there was a problem reported by purify in sre
(sorry forget exact problem)

the attached patch corrects the problem.

i believe it was a memory leak (doesn't seem right)
or perhaps accessing freed memory.

not positive the patch fixes the problem in
the best way, but purify is happy
