[Bug 1619353] [NEW] seg fault in ul on this input

Public bug reported:

running ul(1) on an output of script(1) causes a seg fault.  I'm of the
opinion that a seg fault on any input whatever is a bug.  This input is
the output of a script(1) of a run of apt-get, but that should not
matter.

Input is attached.  I've run it through head(1) to preserve only enough
to cause the seg fault.
