Description Ryan McCabe 2007-08-30 15:30:17 UTC
I ran across a few places where code can try to dereference NULL pointers in
cman, fenced, and groupd while hunting down something else. Probably unlikely
that any of these is hit during normal operation, but might as well fix, anyway.

Patch is attached. I've checked the fixes into HEAD already.
