Neither am I.
I applied your segfault fix, but I think I'll wait for somebody to show
something this part breaks?

Or more accurately:
$ echo -e 'a\nb\nc\nd' | sed -e '/b/c\'
a
c
d
I.E. treating 'c\' with no next line as 'd', and ignoring the error
condition rather than reporting it. Even gcc at least gives a warning:
$ echo '\' > hello2.c
$ gcc -c hello2.c
hello2.c:1:1: warning: backslash-newline at end of file [enabled by default]

Because they escaped a space. We do the same thing, c has data to output
so we output it.

Thanks for the fix. Did your fuzzer find anything else?
