  13. Hi!
  14.      Our application died when trying to write a NULL char *
  15. using the ostream << operator.  Since this code has survived
  16. compilation using several cfront based compilers, I ended up
  17. adding a check for NULL to ostream& operator<< (ostream& stream,
  18. const char *s) in iostream.C.  Is this uncool?
  19.  
  20.     Thanks!
