The problem is that in cli/cli-script.c, execute_user_command(),
instream is set to NULL:

312	  /* Set the instream to 0, indicating execution of a
313	     user-defined function.  */
314	  make_cleanup (do_restore_instream_cleanup, instream);
315	  instream = (FILE *) 0;

and later used for fileno():

Probably.
I think every crash in GDB deserves a bugzilla entry.
