 Dear Sir or Madam,
 
 in view of the upcoming NetBSD Hackathon, I solved a minor bug (30618)
 in info(1). The problem was that in the special case where item=0, the
 entry pointer was never  assigned a value, leading to a null pointer
 dereference a few lines later.
 
 I attach you the patch that solves this issue.
 
 Please feel free to contact me in case you need further clarification.
 
 Yours faithfully,
 Stathis Kamperis,
 Student of Medicine,
 GREECE
