There is no error in GNU implementation, since it is allowed to segfault by C99 standard, when supplied invalid input:
The value of the argument must be representable as an unsigned char or the value of EOF

>>6 In fact GNU implementation is rather clever, encoding all character attribs into a table, so it is both robust and very fast. I.e. it will work no matter the encoding (even with DOS and Windows codepages). But it leaves it to the user to ensure that input is correct.

Also, please stop accusing Stallman of being a pedophile. He has promised the open source community to treat his obsession with children.

The irony here is that the ESR-tier of gun nut is actually right. We do need guns to protect ourselves, because there are real people out there who intend us harm; either for our politics (generally some branch of anarchism) or because people like us have what the megacorporations dearly covet but can never seize for themselves.
I ain't saying glowniggers, but damned if it's not bleeding obvious that these twentysomethings are standing in pissing rain for nothing in particular, positioned such that their horizons of observation cross.
It was not Richard Stallman who raped these children, but his friend, Marvin Minsky. Minsky was part of a child trafficking ring. And Stallman has just defended his old pal.
Registered sex offenders need guns for self-defense more than others. Imagine a lynching crowd gathering around the paedophile's house. Only the superior firepower would pacify them.
