Hi!

Sorry for not clarifying the error in this thread.
I fixed it in v3 (already merged).

The issue was in my implementation. I was overwriting a few bytes of
memory due to an out of bounds bug. Thanks to the crash I mentioned,
I detected it before the code got merged.

Thanks a lot for the pointers Daniel, the next time I'll check
.kunit/test.log for usefull information.

Jose
