Change the sawalpha value to 1 or
remove five lines as shown below:
/* Copy the string and look up values in the allowedchars array above.
* If we see any we don't like, reject the string.
*/
p = retbuf;
-> sawalpha = 0;
while (*identifier) {
*p = *identifier++;
switch (allowedchars[*(unsigned char*) p]) {
case 0:
return NULL;
-> case 2:
-> sawalpha = 1;
-> /* FALL THROUGH */
default:
;
}
p++;
}
*p = 0;
-> if (!sawalpha) return NULL; /* has to be one alpha char */
return retbuf;
