I do not have time to fix this, but I got a few segfaults here, so it needs
to be fixed. Either push the patch or, better push an actual fix.

instructions to reproduce the issue or a stack trace would make it
easier for interrested people to fix this

i can guess that maybe buf is NULL but thats just a guess

Yes, it happens when flirting with OOM, when OOM happens in one of the
allocations for dyn_buf, the error is kept and reported when calling
avio_close_dyn_buf(), and in that case buf is NULL and causes a segfault
a few lines below.
