        gnats          : ChangeLog 

Log message:
        * adm.c (copy_adm_entry): Handle blank metadata fields by correctly
        assigning the relevant field in the adm struct to NULL - and thereby
        avoid an attempt to xstrdup a NULL value.
        
        * file-pr.c (createNewPRFile): Avoid a NULL pointer dereference when
        there's a blank response time field in the submitters file.
        
        * gnatsd.c (findUserAccessLevel): Avoid a strlen of NULL when the
        gnatsd.user_access file contains a blank 'database-alias' field.
        
        * gnats.h (rewrite_pr): Made it a static function in edit.c - it
        wasn't being used outside this scope anyway.
        
        * mail.c (get_responsible_address): Avoid a NULL pointer dereference
        if the responsible file doesn't have an email address for the
        gnats-admin user.
        
        * index.c, index.h (getPrevPR, setPrevPR, setNextPR): New functions.
        The index chain is now doubly linked allowing edited PRs to be
        replaced without incurring the overhead of a search through the
        chain. As well as offering significantly better performance, this
        supports a change to the PR edit functionality whereby we now start
        with a copy of the old PR as well as the updated PR instead of
        retrieving the old PR (from the index) in the guts of rewrite_pr.
        The motivation behind this change is to isolate the index
        functionality and move toward a generic backend datastore which
        doesn't require the index.
        (replaceCurrentPRInIndex): Modified signature. Pass in the PR to be
        replaced (as well as the new PR) since we can now use the doubly
        linked index chain to replace the PR without searching for it.
        
        * pr.h (lookup_pr_path): Removed. Replaced by a call to the new
        get_pr_from_index () function followed by a call to (a modified)
        get_pr_path (). This change allows a single index search to be done
        once (early on in a given call stack) to retrieve a PR and
        thereafter access the PR file without requiring  more index
        searches.
        (pr_delete): New function. Contains the flat-file specific logic
        related to PR deletions which will be moved out into a flat-file
        backend when the datastore backend is generalized.
        
        * pr.c (get_pr_from_index): New function. Retrieve a PR from the
        index.
        (pr_file_readable): New function. Check if a file can be opened for
        reading.
        (pr_delete): New function. Flat-file specific logic for delete.
        (prExists): Now utilize get_pr_from_index () and get_pr_path ()
        instead of the deprecated lookup_pr_path ().
        (readPRWithNum): Ditto. Also set the PR's next/prev index pointers.
        (get_pr_path): New signature. Take in a PR * instead of searching
        the index.
        (lookup_pr_path): Deprecated.
        
        * edit.c (applyChangeActions, processFieldChange, sendAuditMail):
        Repositioned within the file so as not to require prototypes.
        (processPRChanges): Handle NULL values appropriately when undoing
        changes to modified read-only fields.
        (rewrite_pr, replace_pr, edit_field): rewrite_pr now takes in a copy
        of the old pr instead of retrieving it from the index. This is in
        preparation for allowing it to be used with more than just the flat
        file backend datastore. Also moved some error checking out of
        rewrite_pr and simplified it...no need to validate the whole PR
        when editing a single field.
        (deletePR): Moved the file-related logic into a new pr_delete function
        inside pr.c thereby preparing for a general backend datastore.
