Compiling with "./configure CFLAGS='-g'" and then gdb src/vim, I get a crash
right at startup do to buffer overflow:
#4 0xb7644105 in __GI___fortify_fail (msg=0xb76a3648 "buffer overflow
detected") at fortify_fail.c:38
#5 0xb7642eba in __GI___chk_fail () at chk_fail.c:29
#6 0xb76421ed in __strcpy_chk (dest=dest@entry=0x82eb671 <vimvars+17> "c",

Rerunning w/ a breakpoint at the problem:
851 STRCPY(p->vv_di.di_key, p->vv_name);
(gdb) p p->vv_di
$1 = {di_tv = {v_type = 1 '\001', v_lock = 0 '\000', vval = {v_number = 0,
v_float = 0, v_string = 0x0, v_list = 0x0, v_dict = 0x0}},
di_flags = 0 '\000', di_key = ""}
(gdb) p p->vv_di.di_key
$2 = ""
(gdb) p p->vv_name
$3 = 0x81edf5d "count"
(gdb) n
