I'm a little suspicious of the change in r42961, which essentially does
- const char * const file_name = file->strstart;
+ const char * const file_name = Buffer_bufstart(file);
In general, I don't think bufstart is necessarily the same as strstart.
At least some years ago it wasn't supposed to always be the same. For
example, if a user did a substr(), strstart might actually point somewhere
within the buffer, not just at the start. At least that was my
understanding from some time ago. I didn't create a ticket in case my
memory was faulty or the rules have changed, but did want to ask another
pair of eyes to check it out.
Thanks,
