I would like to report a bug that causes zsh to crash with an invalid pointer.

So far I've only been able to reproduce the bug in dolphin's embedded terminal, an associated bug report can be on KDE bug reports [1].

The message I get upon the crash is:

---

free(): invalid pointer
Warning: Program '/usr/bin/zsh' crashed.

---

This only happens in dolphin, and only upon opening a new dolphin window. If I close and re-open the terminal panel, there is no crash.

Downgrade of zsh (5.5-1 => 5.4.2-2) fixes the issue.
