FIXED: a bug in csh(1)
A heinous bug has been found in the csh. The routine syntax()
expects 3 parameters and is only called with 2, when called
non-recursively, eg in sh.c. The third parameter is a word of
flags. The fix is to replace calls of syntax(p1, p2) with
syntax(p1, p2, 0).
Specifically, the necessary modifications are:
diff src/csh/sh.c.old src/csh/sh.c
639c639
t = syntax(paraml.next, ¶ml, 0);
diff src/csh/sh.exp.c.old src/csh/sh.exp.c
483c483
t = syntax(paraml.next, ¶ml, 0);
diff src/csh/sh.glob.c.old src/csh/sh.glob.c
645c645
t = syntax(paraml.next, ¶ml, 0);
These changes are necessary on all tapes written before 12/5/81.
