SVN rev 196538 on 2009-08-25 12:32:16Z by bz
MFC r182842:
Catch a possible NULL pointer deref in case the offsets got mangled
somehow.
As a consequence we may now get an unexpected result(*).
Catch that error cases with a well defined panic giving appropriate
pointers to ease debugging.
(*) While the concensus was that the case should never happen unless
there was a bug, noone was definitively sure.
