I should say that I did not read sendmail 5.65 source carefully when I
posted previsous article.  I cannot prove that such a macro is used
outside the function.

But at my site, $g often changed to scratched value before I modified
sendmail 5.65 as I posted before.  I will check it again.

This is true.  Previous patch was not correct.
