bbgen core dump on "empty" alternate pages
I just noticed something today...
A few weeks ago I set up an alternate view "TESTING:" where I can put hosts that are still not in production, but that might be interesting to monitor by the people who are setting them up. As it was I had two such hosts.
A few days ago I moved those over to PROD: which left TESTING: empty - no hosts. This caused bb-gen to core dump every time it tried to create the page for TESTING: - I just noticed this when playing with the report generator and noticed that the bbgen test for the server changed between red and green every 5 minutes or so...
(I have not set up paging and email alerts yet - go figure ;) )
I fixed this by putting a dummy host in bb-hosts: 0.0.0.0 dummy # TESTING: noconn noinfo notrends
However, I guess this can be fixed for 4.2 (if it isnt already) so I thought I'd mention it. Hopefully I'm not the only one who can reproduce this :)

I also noticed this yesterday while looking at a different bug. This patch should fix it (goes on top of todays snapshot, but will probably apply cleanly against all of the beta/snapshots of 4.2).
