[tor-commits] [tor/release-0.2.2] Detect and handle NULL returns from (gm/local)time_r
commit 51e551d3837990b7c4491253a88bedd2513fe1de

Detect and handle NULL returns from (gm/local)time_r
These functions can return NULL for otherwise-valid values of
time_t. Notably, the glibc gmtime manpage says it can return NULL
if the year if greater than INT_MAX, and the windows MSDN gmtime
page says it can return NULL for negative time_t values.
Also, our formatting code is not guaranteed to correctly handle
years after 9999 CE.
This patch tries to correct this by detecting NULL values from
gmtime/localtime_r, and trying to clip them to a reasonable end of
the scale. If they are in the middle of the scale, we call it a
downright error.
Arguably, it's a bug to get out-of-bounds dates like this to begin
with. But we've had bugs of this kind in the past, and warning when
we see a bug is much kinder than doing a NULL-pointer dereference.
Boboper found this one too.

+ o Minor bugfixes
+ - On some platforms, gmtime and localtime can return NULL under
+ certain circumstances even for well-defined values of time_t.
+ Try to detect and make up for this deficiency. Possible fix for
+ bug 2077. Bugfix on all versions of Tor. Found by boboper.
