+Subject: [PATCH] expect: Fix segfaults if Tcl is built with stubs and Expect
+ is used directly from C program
+
+Description: This dirty hack fixes segfaults if Tcl is built with stubs
+ and Expect is used directly from C program.
+Bug: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=588817
+Example:
+ #include <stdio.h>
+ #include <tcl8.5/expect.h>
+ int main()
+ {
+     FILE *pipe;
+     char *some_command = "uname";
+     char datum;
+     pipe = exp_popen(some_command);
+     if (pipe == NULL) return 1;
+     while ((datum = getc (pipe)) != EOF)
+       printf("%c",datum);
+ }
+Example:
+ #include <stdio.h>
+ #include "expect.h"
+ main()
+ {
+     int fd = 0;
+     fd = exp_spawnl("echo", "echo", "Hello User: Whats up?", (char*) 0);
+     switch (exp_expectl(fd, exp_regexp, "ser:", 1, exp_end)) {
+       case 1: {
+           printf("GOT ser:\n");
+           break;
+       }
+       default: {
+           printf("DEFAULT\n");
+           return 1;
+       }
+     }
+     printf("Normal Exit\n");
+     return 0;
+ }
