Stop dereferencing invalid pointers.


What happened to our OTNs (off-topic Nazis). Why aren't they stomping
the guts out of these people saying "segmentati on ain't in our
bible^Wstandar d!" :-)

You must distinguish between the thread title ("Segmentati on Fault")
and the topic (invalid pointers.)

BTW, what's the "^W" for?

Old "ed" command, meaning "delete the previous word". Understood in
informal context to mean "no, I mean".
