bug#2259: 23.0.90; PATCH: getenv mistakenly passes a frame to getenv_int


From: Eric Hanchrow
Subject: bug#2259: 23.0.90; PATCH: getenv mistakenly passes a frame to getenv_internal, when it should instead pass a CONS
Date: Mon, 9 Feb 2009 19:37:47 -0800

Please write in English if possible, because the Emacs maintainers
usually do not have translators to read other languages for them.

Your bug report will be posted to the emacs-pretest-bug@gnu.org mailing list.

Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug
and the precise symptoms of the bug:

I noticed that (getenv "SSH_TTY" (selected-frame)) returned nil even
though (assoc 'environment (frame-parameters (selected-frame))) returned
an environment that indeed defined that variable.  I poked around and
saw that getenv was passing a frame to getenv_internal, but
getenv_internal only consults that second argument if it's a CONS.  This
patch seems to fix the problem.

    +                           (and frame (assoc 'environment 
(frame-parameters frame))))))

If Emacs crashed, and you have the Emacs process in the gdb debugger,
please include the output from the following gdb commands:
    `bt full' and `xbacktrace'.
If you would like to further debug the crash, please read the file
/usr/local/src/emacs/etc/DEBUG for instructions.
