Subject: [PATCH] Don't compare a non-existing function with NULL

Obviously someone forgot something here or didn't use -ansi. Either way,
index is nowhere declared so I assume the current behaviour is to check
against the index() function coming from somewhere in the POSIX headers.
The comparison doesn't make sense then.
