I'm pretty sure current master will segfault for you for unrelated
reasons. You probably either want to just apply the patch from the
commit Simon mentioned ("git cherry-pick", or just find it in gitweb),
or pull the branch refs/changes/75/3475/2 .

If you wait until tomorrow to pull, maybe master will work then. But at
the time I'm writing this, I'm pretty sure it won't.
