But that just tests whether a non-NULL value exists and doesn't
use it as a pointer to anything, so no crash until later.
(This assumes that links[i].form still points to valid memory,
which may well be the case.) No reason to suspect a deeper problem
here.
But of course everyone should heed your advice to to clean makes.

It isn't, unless you are talking about something different.
I added that extra test when I first merged your search additions in,
it just seemed to make sense in that place; and remembered that when I
saw Larry's trace.
