Your problem appears to be in iedit_setup_existing; calling copy_object
where the destination of the copy is a null reference.
perhaps iedit_setup_existing means to create another copy of an object
'real_num' or an object looked-up in the routine but forgot to malloc
the space so it'd be providing the routine with a valid pointer...
. o O ( actually naming a pointer 'real_num' is a "bad thing",
since having num in the word implies that it's a standard
numerical value -- or did gdb start printin' 0xXXX rather than
YYY for numericals?, chuckle )
