This is the code in glibc-2.24 around the crash site:
,----[ glibc-2.24/elf/dl-load.c:442 ]
| to_free = cp = expand_dynamic_string_token (l, cp, 1);
|
| size_t len = strlen (cp);
`----
…while expand_dynamic_string_token will indeed return NULL on a failed
malloc. Code in the most recent glibc looks the same, so I'll carry
this issue over to the glibc bugzilla then.
Sorry about the noise…
