That is something you cannot guarantee in C, basically ever. Libraries always require that they are called with correct arguments. Sure, a NULL pointer could be detected, but calling a function with a NULL pointer that is not documented to accept one is a bug in the calling application and results in undefined (!) behavior. That is normal in C and in MHD's case the "desired" outcome. Just check for the NULL response object before calling the MHD function, it's better for everyone involved ;-).
