Following up myself, José's message with the valgrind trace was held for
moderation because it exceeded the message size limit for the list.

I have forwarded the trapped message to myself and there may be a
fencepost error. I have suggested the patch I give below to José and am
awaiting his feedback.

So if you have crashes that don't quite make sense, please try this
patch and let me know if it helps:
