Bug Description

running ul(1) on an output of script(1) causes a seg fault. I'm of the opinion that a seg fault on any input whatever is a bug. This input is the output of a script(1) of a run of apt-get, but that should not matter.

Input is attached. I've run it through head(1) to preserve only enough to cause the seg fault.
