OK, it turns out the hard-lock and the null pointer dereference might be
the same, I have a random seed for the fuzzer from a hard-lock crash that
reproduces and it generated the null pointer crash. (This is with your
patch applied).

I can try to see if I can bisect down to a specific event sequence that
triggers this, but that can be tricky sometimes if things lock up so fast
that the event log doesn't get written out before the crash.
