When malloc for jump, if (head && location) { jump = xmalloc(sizeof(struct jump_key)); .... } And here it is used: if (head && location && menu == location) jump->offset = strlen(r->s);So I think when jump is used, it must not be NULL; then !=NULL is not needed.
I tested the patch against v13.6-rc5. It fixes the problem with the warning. You can add Reviewed-by: Heinrich Schuchardt <[email protected]> Best regards Heinrich

A check jump != NULL should be added before accessing parts of structure jump_key. Best regards Heinrich Schuchardt
