Summary: [PATCH] Fix segfauly in check_nwstat.c
Initial Comment:
The attached patch fixes a segfault in check_nwstat.c.
If the script can't get netware version, it does:
asprintf(&netware_version,"");
Which despite what one would hope, actually sets the
POINTER to NULL, per a long-standing, documented bug in
the gnu library - which they keep for backwards
compatibility, best I can tell.
Anyway, in the cases where there's nothing to copy, I
simply use a strdup which prevents the segfault. Please
apply.

Not until I get back -- this check_nwstat.c can't be dropped
into my current directory and rerun make, and I'm about to
head on vacation. I'll check it next wee for you.

Okay, well I've applied the patch you added, would you be
able to test? I lack a Novell server unfortunately.

The code in the latest CVS changes:
asprintf(&netware_version,"");
to
asprintf(&netware_version,"%s","");
but that still segfaults for me...

Looks like this was fixed in rev 1.9. Would you be able to
try a recent snapshot?
