When malloc for jump,
if (head && location) {
jump = xmalloc(sizeof(struct jump_key));
....
}
And here it is used:
if (head && location && menu == location)
jump->offset = strlen(r->s);
So I think when jump is used, it must not be NULL; then !=NULL is not needed.

Hello Zhen-Hua,
the patch looks incomplete to me. A check
jump != NULL
should be added before accessing parts of structure jump_key.
