[Qemu-devel] patch vl.c, segfault with "qemu -h"

[Marion Hakanson]

When you run "qemu -h", help() is called with optarg==NULL, which
causes a segfault on my system (Solaris-10U3_x86, 64-bit kernel,
but qemu compiled as 32-bit app, gcc-3.4.5 from blastwave.org).
It's a side-effect of the -r1.315 patch which fixed related segfaults.

The following patch fixes the "-h" segfault, and also appears to yield
the exit value intended by previous folks.
