The following ld_preload can help in some cases.  Mutt has this hack

Oddly enough, that same spd_readdir() preload craps out here too
when used with "rm -r" on largish directories.

 From looking at the code, I think I've found at least one bug in opendir:
...
dnew = realloc(dirstruct->dp, dirstruct->max * sizeof(struct dir_s));
...

Shouldn't this be: "...*sizeof(struct dirent_s));"?
..

Yeah, that's one bug.
Another is that ->fd is frequently left uninitialized, yet later used.

Fixing those didn't change the null pointer deaths, though.
