>Description:
	When I run "caledar -a", it seems to ignore my calendar file.
>How-To-Repeat:
	Create a personal calendar file with test entries and run
	"calendar -a" as root.
>Fix:
	I don't claim to understand exactly how this code was intended to
	work, but I made the problem go away by adding the line

		y = NULL;

	just before the last return statement in the walkthrough_dates()
	function in the source file dates.c.


	Here is the context diff:

               		 *e = d->events;
		                return (1);
        		}
		+       y = NULL;
  
        		return (0);
