--- Comment #2 from Nick Clifton <nickc at redhat dot com> ---
Thanks for reporting this bug.

The issue was that the uncompressed section size was set to -1, so the BFD
library thought that the decompression had failed and so attempted to free a
buffer that had not actually been allocated.

I have checked in a small patch to fix the problem.
