Okay. I assume it'll be some time till the devel branch becomes a new
release, so I had hoped this could find its way into 4.3. I think
invalid memory access is something that shouldn't happen in a stable
version.

(The reason I'm particularly interested in this is that I'm working on
making it easier to run a whole system with ASAN enabled - for that
these kind of issues need to be resolved.)
