But as a side note, for any cases that do, please use xmallocz() instead of manually adding 1 to the length. Even if you don't need the final byte to be NUL, it checks for integer overflow. -Peff -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
