It looks like this bug was fixed in 7.5.0.  The relevant commit on the
release branch is here:

https://github.com/heimdal/heimdal/commit/749d377fa357351a7bbba51f8aae72cdf0629592

This might be a secondary bug, also fixed in 7.5.0:

https://github.com/heimdal/heimdal/commit/108b28874788e5d0aa6f7c5af16d6cc405ae8eac

(I am not a Heimdal developer, but I was curious enough to look into the
backtrace.)
