Trouble is it doesn't look like a decently deep stack. I would have expected to
see a lot more output from the backtrace.
Having said that the z in the z->p = create_s() line mentioned as the place of
the fault is the result of a calloc without checking for a null return from
calloc. Here's a[nother simple] patch to fix that.
It's not going to fix whatever is putting you into the situation that makes
calloc fail though. It'll just make the failure less disasterous.
