Hello,
The following two patches fix a couple of problems with make(1)
1. Null Suffixes were not being copied, but they were being free'd
This caused rules of the form:
.c:
${CC} ...
to access invalid memory and potentially core dump..
[That was always broken; I did not break that one :-)]
2. My recent fixes to parse ${VAR:%.foo=%.bar} handled the null string
case incorrectly (${VAR:=.c} was broken).
Thanks to Keith Bostic for finding the bugs...
To answer the recent note about make memory leaks:
Unfortunately the original author of make (Adam De Boor) played some
nasty tricks with memory allocation (like partially freeing lists
without freeing their contents for efficiency) and the program has a
lot of memory leaks which can be verified with purify. I think that it
is not easy to fix most of them without a lot of work (but I will try
when I get some spare time). I personally have not seen make grow to
14M... Another thing I don't like about make, is that it uses the list
package extensively for most of it's data structures, even when it
should be using other ADT's like trees or hash tables.
