On further investigation, I think I was seeing symptoms of the problem
(smashed stack), not the cause. The NULL argument I observed was
inconsistent with the next stack frame up, where the same argument was
perfectly valid.
The problem starts to occur with version 1.126 of lisp/tar-mode.el. This
version contained a rewrite to use separate unibyte and multibyte
buffers rather than switching between them in the same buffer. I think
something is going wrong here - a possible problems is that the buffer
where the crash occurs has a buffer-file-coding-system of
iso-latin-1-dos, but my tar program outputs unix line ends (checked by
redirecting output to a file, and letting Emacs auto-detect line ends in
that file).
