            Bug ID: 24018
           Summary: gettext() may return NULL
           Product: glibc
           Version: unspecified
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: libc
          Assignee: unassigned at sourceware dot org
          Reporter: bruno at clisp dot org
                CC: drepper.fsp at gmail dot com
  Target Milestone: ---

dcigettext.c line 634 contains the statement
  return NULL;

>From the wrong indentation of this line you can already guess that this code
was written in a hurry. And indeed it is buggy: gettext() is not supposed to
return NULL when given a non-NULL argument.

Better replace this line with
  goto return_untranslated;
like 4 lines above.
