Synopsis: fclose(3) dumps core on NULL State-Changed-From-To: open-closed State-Changed-By: cracauer State-Changed-When: Wed Sep 9 17:24:02 MEST 1998 State-Changed-Why: Change request rejected. The error people are probably fall into is that they try to pass the handle they got from fopen to fclose "just in case there is some cleanup to make on this object". This is nonsense, since it will be a NULL pointer and does not point to any object at all. Insofar the manpage is right as well.
