Hi all,

I'm just reporting a segfault in the info program when INFOPATH is
set to "/usr/share/texmf/info:/opt/gnome/info:" (minus the double
quotes, of course).  Occurs when invoking 'info' or 'info <menu item>'.
According to some black magic performed by SO, the crash occurs in
strcpy.  Workaround is to remove the trailing colon from INFOPATH.
Version is 'info (GNU texinfo) 4.0', from the standard Slackware 8.0
texinfo package, with glibc 2.2.5.  I'm not sure what exactly caused it
to break, because info with that INFOPATH has been working fine in the
past.  If you need any more information, please email me.

Regards,

Alexandra Walford
