From 2cd95e7da8367cccdcdd5c9b160012d1dec5cbdb Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: Tobias Stoeckmann <tobias@stoeckmann.org>
Date: Sun, 25 Sep 2016 22:34:27 +0200
Subject: Avoid buffer underflow on empty strings.

If an empty string is received from an x-server, do not underrun the
buffer by accessing "rep.nameLen - 1" unconditionally, which could end
up being -1.
