| Hi Christos,
| 
| I have addressed more of the Coverity bugs from run 22:
| 
|     CID   Checker         Status
|     632   DEADCODE        FALSE
|     924   FORWARD_NULL    BUG
|     994   FORWARD_NULL    BUG
|     995   FORWARD_NULL    BUG
|     996   FORWARD_NULL    BUG
|     997   FORWARD_NULL    BUG
|     1053  FORWARD_NULL    BUG
|     1054  FORWARD_NULL    BUG
|     1055  FORWARD_NULL    BUG
|     1056  FORWARD_NULL    FALSE
|     1057  FORWARD_NULL    IGNORE
|     2427  REVERSE_NULL    BUG
|     2428  REVERSE_NULL    BUG
| 
| All of CIDs 994, 995, 1055 and 1057 were fixed by the patch to the
| Entnode_Create function in entries.c rather than in the location where
| the error was reported.
| 
| I have applied this fix to both the cvs-1.11.x (STABLE) and cvs-1.12.x
| (FEATURE) branches in the main cvs repository. The following patch is
| against the :pserver:address@hidden:/cvsroot
| src/gnu/dist/xcvs/src top-of-tree sources.
| 
| I will continue to work through the list of remaining problems as time
| permits.
| 
| None of these fixes appear to have any security implications.

Thanks!
