Initialize the "str" pointer to NULL. There is a test later for if "str"
is NULL but in the original code it was either valid or uninitialized.

Almost everyone automatically initializes stack variables to zero these days so
bugs like this don't show up in testing and we disabled GCC's uninitialized
variable warning so it's easy to miss.
