And the GCC authors always win these cases, C standard in hand.

If you want for me to debug this myself it'll be ages. it looks like
the crashing call is

'\ta\n\tb'.expandtabs(2147483647)

Can you confirm that this crashes? If it does, you should be able to
use gdb to step through expandtabs() and hopefully analyze the
problem.
