Subject: [Rd] supsmu produces segfault when handed all NAs. (PR#9519)
Message-ID: <20070219054313.8D12A5D57F@slim.kubism.ku.dk>

When handed an argument with all NAs, supsmu() causes a
sigfault causing termination of R.  The following example
reproduces the problem (on a linux gentoo system), but I have verified the 
same behavior on a solaris builds as well as several versions of R.


   x <- (1:100)/10;
   y <- sin(pi*x) + rnorm(length(x));
   tmp <- supsmu(x,y);  # works
   y[c(2,5,10)] <- NA;   # a few NAs is OK, warning generated
   tmp<-  supsmu(x,y);
   y<- NA + y;           # all NAs
   tmp <- supsmu(x,y);   # oops

  *** caught segfault ***
  address 0xfffffff8, cause 'memory not mapped'

  Traceback:
   1: .Fortran(R_supsmu, as.integer(leno), as.double(xo), 
as.double(y[ord]),     as.double(wt[o
rd]), as.integer(iper), as.double(span), as.double(bass),     smo = 
double(leno), double(n * 7
), double(1))
    2: supsmu(x, y)

    Possible actions:
    1: abort (with core dump)
    2: normal R exit
    3: exit R without saving workspace
    4: exit R saving workspace
