Which dtc version did you observe this with?  I'm unable to reproduce
the SEGV with current git.

That was

$ cat version_gen.h
#define DTC_VERSION "DTC 1.2.0-g37c0b6a0"

from
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git. In
other words, the DTC used by the Linux 3.6-rc series.

Ah, ok.  Patches to dtc should be made against the upstream version at
git://git.jdl.com/software/dtc.git.  In this case the bug was already
fixed there, in commit a6e6c60e3a97a6b3a033cd052bb3740fd53cbf4c.

Ah yes. That makes sense. Thanks for pointing out the commit that fixes 
the issue. I just checked it out.

I think we're overdue to update the kernel copy of dtc from upstream.

Yeah, seems like the kernel DTC is quite old.
