Details:

In advance I would like to apologize for this imprecise report (due to a lack
of time).   

The [NSSTRING cStringUsingEncoding:NSASCIIStringEncoding] method segfaults
under following conditions:

- Linux 64 Bit
- latest core compiled with clang version 3.5.0 (205406)
- The String is long (for example 23kb) and has an odd length (adding one char
avoid the segfault.)


Workaround: [NSSTRING UTF8String]

Perhaps there is a problem with the character length / array size calculation
but I'm not sure about that.
