OK, so at least that works properly (it's basically what amandad is
doing in that loop).

That all looks reasonable. Unfortunatly, you stopped one short of the
place amandad is failing :-). What about version_info[21]?

OK, then try the above first. If that does not show up as a null
pointer (which it shouldn't since it's what's causing the failure),
set a breakpoint at line 130 (set_pname) and print version_info[21].
If it shows up as a null pointer at that point, step through the code
with "next" and check it after each statement. When it goes bad, the
previous line is the one that clobbered it.
