During some testing I was doing on linux-2.5.41-mm1 I came across the
NULL pointer dereference below. I suspect it is also in 2.5.41 vanilla,
but I have not been able to reproduce it so far. It was on an 8-way
PIII-700, 16 GB ram. I had been running ltp at the time and it had
completed. I was hitting tab at the time it happened to get a command
line completion in bash.
