It should definitely not segfault. But this is where my knowledge stops
and I have no time to look into this.

You should definitely join the IRC channel. I do not know how scared you
are but probably nothing fatal happened since no write was allowed or
took place. But you should wait for the experts to tell you what to do.


Thanks,

Paul
