Under what conditions does yours crash?

Plain vim.exe from MSYS executed in a cmd.exe shell.

I have seen something similar to your observations: If I unset HOME in cmd.exe (via "set HOME=") and then run vim.exe from MSYS, it crashes. If I first run bash and then start vim.exe from bash, it works, even if bash also has its HOME variable unset. Strange...

However, currently the init_homedir function in misc1.c does not consider the case when both UNIX is defined at build time (#ifdef UNIX) but (var == NULL) at run time, which is perfectly possible when vim is compiled in an MSYS environment (which has __unix defined) but executed from a cmd.exe shell without a HOME variable.

The attached short patch is very pragmatic but at least provides a fallback solution when the aforementioned case occures, else the init_homedir function may return and the homedir variable is still NULL.


Cheers,
