You should put that information in the PR (CC restored).

Unfortunately, all I have are debugging suggestions...
- Bring up a non-production machine to play with.
- Bring up a virtual machine or jail to play with.
- Start with a bare bones amd config (e.g., without
anything
but the default maps & .conf files). If there's no
core
dump, then add back parts of your config until it dies.
- Compile amd with debug on and turn up the debug level
to
see if you get any hints.
- Trace deeper into the code to find the source of the
null ptr.
- Try asking on the am-utils mailing list.
