This fixes a long-standing bug where 'fname' was being feed to cat
instead of 'real_fname', causing it to quit with a 'No such file or directory'
error.
FS#377
The function "static void paste_buffer_join_lines(GArray *buf)" in
"src/fe-text/gui-readline.c" is supposed to join lines from the GArray
pointed to by *buf under certain circumstances.
In the code of the function "buf" is actually used for getting the length
of the GArray, but to get a pointer to the data, "paste_buffer->data" is
used; paste_buffer is defined in the scope of the whole file.
This delivers the desired result, because this function is only called
once, with "paste_buffer" as the argument. If paste_buffer_join_lines()
will ever be used with a different argument, it will fail.
In m4/curses.m4, line 134, the 5th argument passed to AC_NCURSES was
surrounded by '"' instead of '[' and ']'. Because of that, the expansion
of AC_NCURSES in that case would produce the following line inside the
configure script (note the repeated double quotes):
screen_manager=""ncurses on $withval/include""
That would cause the following error when configure was executed with
the "--with-ncurses=dir" argument:
./configure: line 13468: on: command not found
Although in the case above the error doesn't actually influence the
build process ('screen_manager' isn't used anywhere in the script),
trying to execute 'on' might be harmful if it corresponded to an
existing command in the user's environment.
The symptom for this one is randomly getting lines split before the last
word, even if there's no need for splitting. Also, this function is only
reached if recode is on, and iconv failed (for example, due to an
incorrect source charset). Thanks to vague for finding this and
providing valgrind logs.
The loop that looks for spaces tried to read backwards from the end of
the current line, with the end being determined by len. Assuming
strsplit_len() with len=400, this meant accessing str[399] in the first
iteration. For strings that don't need splitting, this means an invalid
read always.
If that invalid read happens to hit garbage that has a space character,
(len - offset) points after the end of string, which isn't a problem for
g_strndup() since it stops at the first null, and no splitting happens.
If the garbage doesn't have any spaces, it splits by the last word.
This commit avoids that loop entirely if (remaining_len > len). It also
changes the way it iterates over the string to be much less confusing.
Turns out it was fixing the wrong string, and trying to do
atoi("RECON-1") instead of atoi("1").
"/reconnect 1" worked, but "/reconnect RECON-1" gave that confusing
error message.
Given a big enough write_buffer_size and a long enough
write_buffer_timeout it might be possible to show the user an incomplete
or empty awaylog.

term_addstr() had a long-standing fixme that suggested it didn't
take into account the string encoding when calculating the string
length.
The BIG5 code path is untested.
