IMHO AWeb crashes don't depends on datatypes only.

I have a DraCo. This machine has no CHIP RAM! All illegal accesses
depends on an unitializised pointer like strlen(NULL) creates an
alert! I can switch this of, but i want to see wrong programs.

There are more dangerous accesses in AWeb as strlen(NULL). I wrote
the author two mails including Hunk and Offset of the hit, but i've
got no answer (only the Return-Receipt:-Mail). :(
