I suspect that the original code would have behaved well (and I also
suspect that it was designed to) even if in==NULL upon entry, but
this version will crash here. Nothing a simple
if (!in)
return NULL;
upfront cannot fix, though.
And if we add these three lines back, the patch will become 18
insertions with 18 deletions but the result is very much more
readable than the original ;-).
