Hum, I must have been drunk or something, because it's obviously a
correct patch and it should have been included long ago. This doesn't
need any further checking. GSLists should be initialized to NULL.

Title:
  segfault in create_new_ap_item

Status in network-manager-applet package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  In certain circumstances, nm-applet can crash in create_new_ap_item.
  This is caused by the "dupes" variable introduced in debian/patches
  /nm-applet-use-indicator.patch not being initialized.

  Note that I first observed this only with optimizations turned off
  (-O0), so apparently if one gets lucky, -O2 will cause the variable to
  be initialized to NULL.
