> It turns out {{ast_str_encode_mime(struct ast_str **end, ...)}} has the following line towards the start:
> {{*end = '\0';}}
> This has the effect of setting the ast_str * pointed to by 'end' to NULL - the next line:
> {{ast_str_reset(*end);}}
> Is then a NULL pointer dereference. For some reason that didn't cause a crash for me straight away, but gdb showed very quickly what was the culprit. The following patch fixes the crash for me, with no visible side-effects.
