[nsd-users] SIGSEGV in rbtree_find_less_equal

Hi Chris,

I'm having trouble trying to reproduce the issue locally.

Like you I configure two zones.

zone:
  name: example.com.
  zonefile: example.com.zone.signed

zone:
  name: bar.example.com.
  zonefile: bar.example.com.zone

The file bar.example.com.zone does not exist. After touching and
reloading the signed zone, no segfault occurs. I've tried with and
without the "--disable-radix-tree" configure option (as the error
occurs in the rbtree). I've also tried with example.com. being an NSEC
and NSEC3 zone.

Can you provide some more details?

Best regards,
Jeroen
