The file compiles (I've tried a few compiler options) and "gdb run" yields

    Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
    0x00007ffff783eea5 in _int_malloc (av=0x7ffff7b6a620 <main_arena>, 
bytes=16) at malloc.c:3790

The frames 0-3 involve allocation functions that are not particular to my 
file. Frame 4 says:

    #4  __patsfun_28__28__14 (arg0=<optimized out>, env1=0x605540, env0=10 
'\n') at csv_lexer_dats.c:9023
    9023    ATSINSmove_con1_new(tmpret63__14, postiats_tysum_7) ;

My not-so-educated guess is that this refers to making a cons-cell of a 
stream.

But: How can my function do just fine when manually fed 
 
    cons('a', cons( ';', sing('b'))): stream_vt(char), 

but segfault when I use [streamize_fileref_char] to construct the very same 
stream from the string "a;b" in a file? Where is the room for an infinite 
recursion in that?

Thank you,
August
