I spent a few hours tonight trying to tune this lint program to give me a
better signal to noise ratio, sorry for the lateness (I had said 20
minutes in my previous email).

path.cc(790) : potential NULL pointer access in path

path.cc(2837): while(1)

I verified the output with the code (in an attempt) to make sure the
information being reported is accurate. Some of it I am just not sure of,
so I leave it up to you guys to determine if it is a real problem or not.

I should have some more tomorrow, if I get time.
