Bash Version: 3.0 Patch Level: 16 Release Status: release Description: If PS1 contains '\W' but PWD becomes unset, for instance by 'unset PWD', bash segfaults. This is because the code handling \W uses the result of get_string_value even if it is NULL. However, earlier in the code it does check for NULL and takes appropriate action, so a guaranteed non-NULL version of the result is already available. The fix is to use it.
