Bug #703
hashmake calls gets() but should use fgets().
100%
Description
This can result in an array overrun.
53 hashinit();
54 while (gets(word)) {
55 (void) printf("%.*lo\n", (HASHWIDTH+2)/3, hash(word));
56 }This is a simple enough thing to fix.

You forgot to consider that fgets() includes \n. (And apparently did not perform enough testing.) This change is now backed out, and the bug is reopened.

The root problem of the issue was that we tested (both "tput" and
"hashmake") with something like this:
$ diff -u <(/usr/bin/<prog-to-test>) <($ROOT/usr/bin/<prog-to-test>) #
This would've worked perfectly fine if we would've executed this
within a "bldenv" environment... but it looks we ran the tests
outside "bldenv".
This is quite a humilation because a simple $ set -o nounset # in the test chain would've prevented that... I've teaching that students since a decade... and now fell into the same idiot trap. Grrr... (and sorry...) ...
