Summary:	Over delete of required objects in G4CascadeInterface

Description tkoi 2004-07-27 18:17:20 CEST

It looks like there are over delete of G4DynamicParticle objects at
G4CascadeInterface.cc::ApplyYourself()

At 395th line of G4CascadeInterface.cc
   if(cascadeParticle != NULL) delete cascadeParticle;
However the cascadeParticle (G4DynamicParticle) is required at tracking
process of those secondary particles.
As the result, strange performances will happen in the later calculations and
often terminated with core dump.
See
http://geant4-hn.slac.stanford.edu:5090/HyperNews/public/get/emprocess/171.html

Next line (396th) also delete G4DynamicParticle Object.
if(aFragment != NULL) delete aFragment;
This line possibly makes same trouble.

If I commented out these two lines, I got reasonable result without unexpected
termination of the program.

This trouble come from v6.2 and is not solved in patch01.
