Hmm, this is strange. This change (actually the succeeding 2010-02-06
change to the same place) switches from using alloca to SAFE_ALLOCA
(i.e. malloc, since the desired structure is large). But the only way I
can see for this code to crash is if load_charset_map somehow makes a
pointer into the allocated structure. But in that case, the old alloca
case should have crashed too.
If you remove the SAFE_FREE () calls, does that prevent the crash?
