>Originator: Katsuyoshi OHARA
>Release: FreeBSD 8.0-RELEASE amd64
>Organization:
Kanazawa University
>Environment:
FreeBSD air.s.kanazawa-u.ac.jp 8.0-RELEASE-p2 FreeBSD 8.0-RELEASE-p2 #0: Tue Jan 5 21:11:58 UTC 2010 root@amd64-builder.daemonology.net:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC amd64
>Description:
In the source, stdlib.h is not included.
So the function getenv is not declared and has the return type of int.
The type casting from integer to pointer causes a segmentation violation
if getenv("LANG") != 0.
>How-To-Repeat:
$ LANG=ja_JP.eucJP
$ export LANG
$ ack -h
>Fix:
I send a patch file "ports/japanese/ack/files/patch-ab".
