In sendmail 5.64 a new field name q_ruser was added to the address structure
(found in sendmail.h).  The initialization of the variable NullAddress
(in main.c) was not updated to reflect this.  This can cause some problems
when you go to look at the q_host field or expect the q_ruser field to be
NULL.
Here's the diff:
