  Modified:    sbin/restore  dirs.c
  Log:
  Check a pointer in skipdirs() before dereferencing it.  I don't fully
  understand why it can become a null pointer under some circumstances,
  but i've got a pile of tapes where this happens, and running it thru a
  debugger proved that simply ending the loop in this case did the right
  thing.
  
  Anyway, it cannot make it worse than now, where restore kills itself
  with "Memory fault".
