gollark: Oh, you mean it's actually on the call stack?
gollark: Great?
gollark: Due to C's inferior type system, it does not generally autodetect this kind of issue, but basically, local variables are stored in temporary storage and you cannot safely pass pointers to them outside of where they came from.
gollark: (make sure to free it in the callback, or you WILL memory leaks)
gollark: The solution is to use global variables and invoke the wrath of Zeus, or I guess to just malloc some memory to store a copy of `reqCounts` in.
