Patch that was being applied

Note this patch has been applied before without problems, so it's probably a
recent bug in rawhide patch.

Patch seems to crash on any input (at least on ppc64 and s390x).

Here is the backtrace if it helps:
Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

I'd suspect some change in compiler caused the segfault.
