Great! I just saw the discussion Paul and I had was private, so I forgot
to inform you folks about it.

Unlike the old terminal emulator, libteken is really strict when it
comes to the validity of its internal state. In fact, it has to be this
way. If it wouldn't, then all sorts of scary things could happen
(i.e. buffer overflows on the virtual text buffer).

When I make rigorous changes to libteken, I often let it process
terabytes of random data, but this obviously doesn't protect it against
things like invalid calls to its utility functions.
