This crash is a bug in audit-viewer, I'll fix it for the next release.

I'm not 100% sure, but I think the problem is caused by the fact that 
audit-viewer searches for audit logs in the --prefix subtree (as specified by 
configure). You can verify the used path by running (strings 
/your/prefix/libexec/audit-viewer-server-real |grep /log/audit); If it is not 
/var/log/audit, you'll need to rebuild audit-viewer, specifying 
--localstatedir=/var .

I'll document the necessity to use --localstatedir.

Thank you,
