Hi Alexander,

> Problems with `sysdump`
> Errors:
>      34 Conditional jump or move depends on uninitialised value(s)
>       2 Invalid read of size ...
>       2 Process terminating with default action of signal 11 (SIGSEGV)
>      16 Use of uninitialised value of size ...

These should be fixed now.

Cheers
  Nick
