Hi,
I've been chasing a random crash in an application called Smile
(http://smile.tuxfamily.org/). I
believe I've traced to an uninitialsed function pointer in libMesa. The patch
below seems to have
fixed the crashes.in 7.4.1 - I haven't tested earlier versions but I was also
getting the crash in
7.4. Without the patch, I got a crash at line 661 of
Mesa-7.4.1/src/glx/x11/glxcmds.c/ My
investgations showed that psc->driScreen->waitX had a value of either NULL or
0x100, that latter of
which was, of course, defeating the != NULL test that guards the dereference.
