  34 <PRE>A channel which was suspended tonight on Services 5.0a20 produces the
  35 following in response to /cs info #bots by a user who is not registered with
  36 nickserv:
  37
  38 PANIC! buffer = :testing PRIVMSG <A HREF="http://www.ircservices.za.net/mailman/listinfo/ircservices-coding">ChanServ at services.ctcp.net</A> :info #bots
  39 Services terminating: Segmentation fault
  40
  41 Such a user gets the following text before the segfault:
  42
  43 -ChanServ-         Founder: Mark
  44 -ChanServ-     Description: Bots

  48 This has also happened with channels which are not suspended:

  50 PANIC! buffer = :testing PRIVMSG <A HREF="http://www.ircservices.za.net/mailman/listinfo/ircservices-coding">ChanServ at services.ctcp.net</A> :info #trivia
  51 Services terminating: Segmentation fault

  78 The crash appears to happen around where Options and/or Mode lock should be
  79 printed so I assume it is specific options which cause the crash.
