Issue #6081 has been reported by Eric Wong.

----------------------------------------
Bug #6081: [PATCH] io.c (do_io_advise): raise exception without segfaulting
https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/6081

Author: Eric Wong
Status: Open
Priority: Normal
Assignee: 
Category: core
Target version: 2.0.0
ruby -v: ruby 2.0.0dev (2012-02-25 trunk 34796) [x86_64-linux]


IO objects (e.g. pipes) may have Qnil for fptr->pathv.  Calling
RSTRING_PTR on Qnil is unsafe and causes a segmentation fault.

This issue also affects 1.9.3 and will need to be backported.
