Created attachment 575286 [details, diff]
patch needed for gcc-9.1

gcc-9 doesn't allow NULL parameters to printf.
The attached patch checks for this.

The error was

Comment 1 Jonas Stein gentoo-dev 2019-05-05 10:53:12 UTC
is it a wrong patch? Only whitespace was removed in the patch.

Why do you think so?

Here is the patch again

i.e. the check if(!name) has been moved up before the JS_sprintf_append

Seems as if all firefox and thunderbird based on esr have the same problem, and spidermonkey too? I don't have yet set up gcc-9.1, just had a glance at the file. Would you mind to check?

Please do not assume anything. I have done tested thunderbird-60.x and it is fine with gcc-9.
