Set slot->local to NULL after doing a fclose on the FILE* pointer it
points to. This prevents an invalid FILE* pointer from being passed to
ftell() in http.c::run_active_slot().

This issue was raised by Clemens Buchacher on 30th May:

You mean here passing FILE* pointer to a fclosed file to ftell()?
