[PATCH] Use correct default for target functions that return pointer


It is wrong to use a function that returns an int as a placeholder for a
function that returns a pointer.

Andreas.

	* target.c (return_null): Define.
	(update_current_target): Use it instead of return_zero for
	functions that return a pointer.
