It's certainly an interesting one, I tried it in the old "arc" and it
segfaulted. Ironic really, it might have been preferable if nomarch
had done the same... :-)
Luckily the fix is easy, I'd just made a silly mistake which meant
certain kinds of corrupt file could hang it. I've attached a patch,
and I'll upload a version 1.4 with the fix soon.
