This looks about the right approach, but it causes problems in 
subshells, a double free:

$ ./busybox ash -c 'readonly x; echo $(command eval x=2)'
ash: eval: line 1: x: is read only
*** Error in `./busybox': free(): invalid pointer: 0x000055a784c1c300 ***
[...]

That's with busybox checked out from git (commit 
9db74e49e5b462089c6eec0182d819c0d4708e57), where your patch is applied, 
completely unpatched and completely default config.

I omitted the backtrace output, but it's popfile() getting called, after 
popallfiles() has already been called.

Cheers,
Harald van Dijk
