If that were the case I would see it as worth fixing there, too. :)

That's what I'm seeing, too, so I don't feel comfortable committing this
patch now. It compiles file, but it crashes either way with a message
similar to the above, so I don't see an improvement (yet).

If you could pinpoint where this error stems from (e.g., single-stepping
in gdb) that might help getting it fixed.

Thanks,
