Well, the data here is data we create. It’s not even evil.

It’s a platform-specific crash that happens on a platform I don’t have
access to. It’s probably not anything wildly complicated. Please, take a
minute, put a breakpoint on extract_object_file_name, tell me space_left has
a sane value and so does p and buffer.
