By the way, I notice that the default value for the_refs_backend is
"&refs_be_files". It might be safer to make this NULL (or some
&refs_be_null that fills the vtable, but just returns an error for
each
call).

In 'refs: register ref storage backends', I do make this change.  I
don't do it earlier because we don't have this config stuff in place
yet.

Ah, OK. I was that we did register the files backend as a normal one,
but I missed the assignment to NULL (I do wonder if we want a
refs_be_null to smoke out problem cases with a die("BUG") rather than
segfaulting, but in theory nobody should be doing that).
