Version: 2.6.3-1
Severity: normal
Hi,
stdarg(3) says, about va_arg:
If there is no next argument, or if type is not compatible with the
type of the actual next argument (as promoted according to the default
argument promotions), random errors will occur.
And yet, the file gfileutils.c contains (starting line 1140):
if (next_element)
{
element = next_element;
next_element = va_arg (args, gchar *);
}
else
break;
which seems to try to find out whether there are any further arguments
by checking if the return value of va_arg is anything but NULL. This
isn't correct; it probably works on the developer's system, but on my
PowerBook the result is stack corruption and segfaults.
Fixing this would probably need an API change, unfortunately.
