Package: busybox
Version: 1:1.10.2-2
Severity: normal

Steps to reproduce:
1) busybox nc -v www.google.com 80

Expected results:
1) busybox tells the user that option "-v" is not known.

Actual results:
1) busybox segfaults.

More info:
1) gdb is not too useful since the package does not support building
with debugging symbols:

$ gdb --args busybox nc -v www.google.com 80

2) This is a regression since 1.1.3-4 does not segfault:

$ busybox nc -v www.google.com 80
nc: invalid option -- v
BusyBox v1.1.3 (Debian 1:1.1.3-4) multi-call binary

Usage: nc [OPTIONS] [IP] [port]

Netcat opens a pipe to IP:port

Options:
        -l              listen mode, for inbound connects
        -p PORT         local port number
        -i SECS         delay interval for lines sent
        -w SECS         timeout for connects and final net reads
