etc/DEBUG is for developers; the manual explains to users how to
report crashes.

Hmm... signal 7 is SIGBUS on your system, right?  So this sounds like
one of the pointers in the red-black tree is not aligned correctly.  I
think we will need to see which pointer is that and what's its
relation to the root of the tree and to mem_z sentinel node concocted
by mem_find.  You should be able to show these values when/if the
crash happens again.

Thanks.
