Thanks to Masami for his work tracking down this bug.
I'm concerned about the patch applied to resolve this bug; the code
should not segfault just because of bad datafiles; as long as the API is
followed, errors should be detected (indeed, this will help detect
invalid datafiles in a nicer way).

Hi Sam,
I created a patch to fix Debian's checkrestart tool. I would very much
like to continue using lsof, since it includes things besides from the
maps file (like fd's, exe's, and working directories). On the other
hand, it takes multiple cases to handle the different ways that a
