Sorry for the noise, this only happens when I turn on malloc checks:

export MALLOC_CHECK_=2
export MALLOC_PERTURB_=$(($RANDOM % 255 + 1))

valgrind also reports a problem:

==15631== Invalid read of size 8
==15631==    at 0x401704: ??? (in /usr/bin/column)
==15631==    by 0x401004: ??? (in /usr/bin/column)
