-Subject: [PATCH] Do not use getsubopt
-
-POSIX says that behavior when subopts list is empty is undefined.
-musl libs will set value to NULL which leads to crash.
-
-Simply avoid getsubopt, since we cannot rely on it.
-
-Imported from Alpine Linux
-
-Upstream-Status: Pending
-
-Signed-off-by: Khem Raj <raj.khem@gmail.com>
