Re: RFA: Patch for SIGSEGV in evaluate_subexp_standard


> Approved, if you address Daniel's suggestion somehow.

OK, I've tweaked the call site to handle a NULL return, which is a
normal result and tested for by other callers.  There was already a
test present, it was just not in the right place and needed to be
moved up a couple lines.  Here is the updated patch and ChangeLog
entry.

-Fred

2001-12-10  Fred Fish  <fnf@redhat.com>
 
	* values.c (value_fn_field): Add physname variable.  Use a minimal
	symbol if we don't find a full symbol.  Remove setting of the new
	value's type since that was already done by allocate_value().
	Remove obsolete commented out error call since callees need to
	handle a NULL return, which is possible result not an error.
	* eval.c (evaluate_subexp_standard): Move check for inlined
	functions to precede attempt to dereference a NULL argvec[0].
