 Something like this should be done (IN ALL PLACES):
 
 Index: name6.c
 ===================================================================
 RCS file: /home/ncvs/src/lib/libc/net/name6.c,v
 retrieving revision 1.6.2.3
 diff -u -r1.6.2.3 name6.c
 --- name6.c	2000/05/13 18:46:13	1.6.2.3
 +++ name6.c	2000/06/07 18:55:12
 @@ -1349,7 +1349,8 @@
  				hpbuf.h_length = ADDRLEN(hpbuf.h_addrtype);
  				hp = getanswer(&buf, ret, name, rtl->rtl_type,
  						    &hpbuf, errp);
 -				hp = _hpcopy(&hpbuf, errp);
 +				if (hp != NULL)
 +					hp = _hpcopy(&hpbuf, errp);
  				hp0 = _hpmerge(hp0, hp, errp);
  			}
  		}
 
 
 Which gives the correct behaviour:

 ftp> quit
 
 Script done on Wed Jun  7 21:53:50 2000
