Failing the NULL check and returning seems better than allowing to dereference arbitrary pointer values.As its better to always fail than only sometimes I also think its good to include it.
Does anyone want me to follow up on the upstream bug? Any advice on how best to do so? I assume a "ping" in the Bugzilla and the mailing list but what format should they have (definite noob here but I want to learn). Any advice is greatly appreciated. -- Kindest Regards, Brad Hubbard Senior Software Maintenance Engineer Red Hat Global Support Services Asia Pacific Region
