Thanks.

Unfortunately, backtraces from optimized builds, even those with -Og
switch, are not reliable enough.  So when you know about an existing
problem that is hard to reproduce, please run an unoptimized version
if you can.

Nevertheless, let's see if we can glean anything useful from this
crash.  Please show the output of these GDB commands:

  (gdb) p PT_ADDR
  (gdb) p GPT_ADDR
  (gdb) p GPT
