[New-bugs-announce] [issue5385] mmap can crash after resize failure (windows)

[Hirokazu Yamamoto]

New submission from Hirokazu Yamamoto <ocean-city at m2.ccsnet.ne.jp>:

On windows, after mmap.resize fails, self->map_handle
becomes NULL, but it should become INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE otherwise
CHECK_VALID is passed through, it can cause crash like bellow.

import mmap
m = mmap.mmap(-1, 5)
try:
    m.resize(-1)
except WindowsError:
    pass
m[0] = '1' # crash

The patch is in r69942.
