[Bug libc/2459] Use of uninitialised variable in fnmatch when matching long strings


------- Additional Comments From richard at ex-parrot dot com  2006-03-14 15:41 -------
*Embarassed pause*

Sorry about that -- I should have checked more carefully precisely what my
distribution (Gentoo) was doing to that file.  Having found one patch to that
function, I failed to notice a second one that introduces this bug by deleting
the line

  wstring = (wchar_t *) alloca ((n + 1) * sizeof (wchar_t));

Anyway, this is clearly Gentoo's bug not yours.  Sorry to have inconvenienced
you with it.
