Details:

strdup() is called and the resulting pointer is dereferenced without NULL
check:


        case 'h':               /* leading directories part of path */
          /* sanitised */
          {
            char *pname = strdup (pathname);

            /* Remove trailing slashes - unless it's the root '/' directory. 
*/
            char *s = pname + strlen (pname) -1;
            for ( ; pname <= s; s--)
