When testing *any* distro :-) For instance, in osinfo_db_guess_from_os_tree() we go through the list of OSes testing against the one we passed, right? So, here the one passed is the "regex" for the match_regex() and the info we get from the OS is the "pattern". Considering this ... we end up testing, for instance, against Fedora 6 which doesn't have the treeinfo fields. Then, if you take a look at match_regex() code, you'll find out that we just return "true" in case the pattern is NULL. So, in the end, we should only try to match the treeinfo when the system we're trying to match to provides treeinfo.
