Before, when we only ever printed out the pointer value itself, a NULL pointer would never cause issues and might as well be printed out as just its numeric value. However, with the extended %p formats, especially %pR, we might validly want to print out resources for debugging. And sometimes they don't even exist, and the resource pointer is just NULL. Print it out as such, rather than oopsing. This is a more generic version of a patch done by Trent Piepho (catching all %p cases rather than just %pR, and using "(null)" instead of "[NULL]" to match glibc).

They are actually alpha vs. i386/arm/m68k i.e. ecoff vs. aout. In the only place where we actually tried to handle arm and i386/m68k in different ways (START_DATA() in coredump handling), the arm variant works for all of them (i386 and m68k have u.start_code set to 0).

This updates some personal info in the CREDITS file. I'm no longer actively involved in Keyspan driver work so shouldn't really be listed as a Maintainer here. I do however field the occasional question on them and as I'm dropping the misc.nu domain, want to ensure people can find me should they need to.
