patch7

[Karim Belabas <karim@mpim-bonn.mpg.de>]

This should address one of the bugs reported by Clemens Heuberger (msg 22 on
pari-dev): the SEGV at the end.

Since Ilya did not number its patch, I'll go on with my previous
numerotation (the Official one in Gerhard's terminology...).

Cheers, Karim.

============================  patch 7 (2.0.alpha) ========================

  A one-character patch. This bug only affected the function "string" in
compatibility mode (supposedly only on Linux systems).

  I knew these function names were stupid (there's a nice rect_string hanging
around as well...). As they aren't documented either, they are going to
disapear soon.
