[pacman-dev] inconsistent behaviour in handle.c

Hello,

The functions defined in handle.c seem to have an inconsistent
behaviour. Many of them check that handle is not NULL before acting,
and set pm_errno to PM_ERR_HANDLE_NULL if so.

But others do not, and segfault if used before alpm_initialize() is
called. Is there a rationale behind that or should it be patched?

Regards,
Rémy.
