I recall making a fix in this area based on coverity and clang - probably the latter - referring to a problem with strlen of a null value. The current version is 1.2-20130523
I wasn't able to reproduce it by running the command from the comment #0, but in the backtrace there is a strlen call on NULL. I can make an f18 update to the latest dialog if it fixes the problem. An f19 build here http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=421484
The diagnostic (my check-in comment only noted the tool which found the issue) seemed to point to a case which wasn't likely. If it had been easy to reproduce, or otherwise changed visible behavior, I would have added more info about it, as I did for three items here: http://invisible-island.net/dialog/CHANGES-contents.html#t20121230 (citing each small change would make the log 3-4 times as long, and make it harder to see important stuff).
