Comment (by qbarnes):

 Given that this crash doesn't exist in either 1.52 (when built without its
 i18n patch) or in 1.53.0 (which doesn't have the i18n patch), I'd bet that
 1.53.0 would have the crash problem return when an i18n patch is ported to
 it.  So I don't consider it a good plan to just wait for the patch to
 become available.

 In the mean time, I tore into 1.52+i18n to see if I could debug it.  I've
 made good progress so far.  I've gotten the crash to reproduce under
 Address Sanitizer (ASAN) where a call to memcpy() overwrites memory due to
 a bad pointer.  I've also got the problem down to where I can reproduce it
 with just a one-line file containing only 3 (wide) characters.
