Uhm well i could allocate 9 bytes of memory for the "undefined" :) however
i think i get the point and i'll propably just leave it the way it is and
let it
crash in the case a NULL pointer is thrown to str_dup() that way i can
also check which function the NULL pointer came from and fix it acordingly
since it's propably not supposed to throw a NULL pointer unless it's from
oasis as george said :)
