Details

Description: The smooth engine assumes a certain pointer is not NULL when in fact it quite possibly is NULL. This causes xfce4-taskmanager to crash on my system. I am using the gtk2-smooth-engine package from the AUR which cuts out the gtk1 bits but even if xfce4-taskmanager safely renders for people who use the regular smooth theme package, this patch make libsmooth safer to use.

I discovered another buggy part of the engine when I tried to Alt+Tab in xfwm4 so here's a revised patch (which I also submitted upstream at the same URL).
