This looks like setup_coding_system (or whatever else initializes struct
coding_system) does not initialize the src_pos field.

similarly the struct coding_system.src_multibyte needs to be
initialized.

similarly the struct coding_system.dst_multibyte needs to be
initialized.

It would be interesting to know if the gc warnings are relevant...
