Segmentation fault in line(1) - read one line

[Yuval Langer]

I am not sure if this is a real problem or not, but I have found the
following:

    $ line --version
    line from util-linux 2.27.1
    $ line <<< "$( printf '\naaaaaaaa' )"

    Segmentation fault (core dumped)
    $ line <<< "$( printf '\naaaaaaa' )"

    $

    $ lsb_release -a
    No LSB modules are available.
    Distributor ID: Ubuntu
    Description:    Ubuntu 16.04.1 LTS
    Release:        16.04
    Codename:       xenial

    $ uname -a
    Linux yankel-Lenovo-G505 4.4.0-36-generic #55-Ubuntu SMP Thu Aug 11
18:01:55 UTC 2016 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Many thanks,
Yuval Langer.
