¿? hmm you mean in the trap call? well technically, i just looked at re.RemapShader in the engine and only the first parameter really needs it and the last object is really just a float as far as i can see.

See (this is the fixed version in the engine using a fail-safe checker for COM_StripExtension):

tr_shader.c:

void R_RemapShader(const char *shaderName, const char *newShaderName, const char *timeOffset) {
	char		strippedName[MAX_QPATH];
	int			hash;
	shader_t	*sh, *sh2;
	qhandle_t	h;

	sh = R_FindShaderByName( shaderName );
	if (sh == NULL || sh == tr.defaultShader) {
		h = RE_RegisterShaderLightMap(shaderName, 0);
		sh = R_GetShaderByHandle(h);
	}
	if (sh == NULL || sh == tr.defaultShader) {
		ri.Printf( PRINT_WARNING, "WARNING: R_RemapShader: shader %s not found\n", shaderName );
		return;
	}

	sh2 = R_FindShaderByName( newShaderName );
	if (sh2 == NULL || sh2 == tr.defaultShader) {
		h = RE_RegisterShaderLightMap(newShaderName, 0);
		sh2 = R_GetShaderByHandle(h);
	}

	if (sh2 == NULL || sh2 == tr.defaultShader) {
		ri.Printf( PRINT_WARNING, "WARNING: R_RemapShader: new shader %s not found\n", newShaderName );
		return;
	}

	// remap all the shaders with the given name
	// even tho they might have different lightmaps
	COM_StripExtension(shaderName, strippedName, sizeof(strippedName));
	hash = generateHashValue(strippedName, FILE_HASH_SIZE);
	for (sh = hashTable[hash]; sh; sh = sh->next) {
		if (Q_stricmp(sh->name, strippedName) == 0) {
			if (sh != sh2) {
				sh->remappedShader = sh2;
			} else {
				sh->remappedShader = NULL;
			}
		}
	}
	if (timeOffset) {
		sh2->timeOffset = atof(timeOffset);
	}
}

old version that exists in jka:

void R_RemapShader(const char *shaderName, const char *newShaderName, const char *timeOffset) {
	char		strippedName[MAX_QPATH];
	int			hash;
	shader_t	*sh, *sh2;
	qhandle_t	h;

	sh = R_FindShaderByName( shaderName );
	if (sh == NULL || sh == tr.defaultShader) {
		h = RE_RegisterShaderLightMap(shaderName, 0);
		sh = R_GetShaderByHandle(h);
	}
	if (sh == NULL || sh == tr.defaultShader) {
		ri.Printf( PRINT_WARNING, "WARNING: R_RemapShader: shader %s not found\n", shaderName );
		return;
	}

	sh2 = R_FindShaderByName( newShaderName );
	if (sh2 == NULL || sh2 == tr.defaultShader) {
		h = RE_RegisterShaderLightMap(newShaderName, 0);
		sh2 = R_GetShaderByHandle(h);
	}

	if (sh2 == NULL || sh2 == tr.defaultShader) {
		ri.Printf( PRINT_WARNING, "WARNING: R_RemapShader: new shader %s not found\n", newShaderName );
		return;
	}

	// remap all the shaders with the given name
	// even tho they might have different lightmaps
	COM_StripExtension(shaderName, strippedName);
	hash = generateHashValue(shaderName, FILE_HASH_SIZE);
	for (sh = hashTable[hash]; sh; sh = sh->next) {
		if (Q_stricmp(sh->name, strippedName) == 0) {
			if (sh != sh2) {
				sh->remappedShader = sh2;
			} else {
				sh->remappedShader = NULL;
			}
		}
	}
	if (timeOffset) {
		sh2->timeOffset = atof(timeOffset);
	}
}

note how in the fixed version com_stripextension takes into affect the newsize, and the jka one does not.

/*
============
COM_StripExtension
============
*/
void COM_StripExtension( const char *in, char *out ) {
	while ( *in && *in != '.' ) {
		*out++ = *in++;
	}
	*out = 0;
}

vs.

/*
============
COM_StripExtensionSafe
============
*/
void COM_StripExtensionSafe( const char *in, char *out, int destsize ) {
	int             length;

	Q_strncpyz(out, in, destsize);

	length = strlen(out)-1;
	while (length > 0 && out[length] != '.')
	{
		length--;
		if (out[length] == '/')
			return;		// no extension
	}
	if (length)
		out[length] = 0;
}

i renamed it because i do not like to modify anything in the q_* files
