Patch to add NULL pointer check none

Description James Westby 2008-04-24 21:01:36 UTC 
Please see

https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-settings-daemon/+bug/197153

for the bug.

The attached patch just adds a NULL pointer check that is
needed to fix this.

Thanks,

James

Patch has been sent upstream (see
http://mail.gnome.org/archives/gnomecc-list/2008-April/msg00009.html)

I feel this is blocker-worthy - assuming the patch is correct it's an easy fix,
and it's a crasher in a visible F9 feature
(http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/RandrSupport).

Thanks, ssp said he'd look at the collected Ubuntu patches later today.
