Super, thanks Daniel!

I will commit to trunk & 2.3.  This is a low risk fix.  Keep testing!!

> The attached class makes Lucene crash with an NPE when starting it with 
> -Xmx10M, although there's probably an OutOfMemory problem. The stacktrace:
> Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NullPointerException
>       at java.util.Arrays.fill(Unknown Source)
>       at 
> org.apache.lucene.index.DocumentsWriter$ByteBlockPool.reset(DocumentsWriter.java:2873)
>       at 
> org.apache.lucene.index.DocumentsWriter$ThreadState.resetPostings(DocumentsWriter.java:637)

>       at LuceneCrash.myrun(LuceneCrash.java:32)
>       at LuceneCrash.main(LuceneCrash.java:19)
> The documents are quite big (some hundred KB each), I cannot attach them but 
> I can send them via private mail if needed. The crash happens the first time 
> reset() is called, after indexing 10 documents. I assume the bug is just that 
> the error is misleading, there maybe should be an OOM error.
