Sorry, bus error and segfault are the same to me - it's broke. But
thanks, this expands my understanding another bit ^_^

That's probably the same bug I just found in another module, and is

Which one?

I just changed all the NULLs to "", it's in CVS now. (for all those
modules I found it in)
Note that this is a bus error, not a segfault. On PPC, the most common
reason for a bus error is unaligned access (e.g. trying to read a
32-bit word from a memory address which isn't a multiple of 4).
x86 allows unaligned access, so this kind of bug normally only gets
discovered on Macs.
Intel OSX. I don't know what the default alignment is for Intel
OSX. The GCC manpage wasn't clear what the Intel defaults are for
OSX (or it's clear in a complex way).
