The crash occurs because rfc1738_do_escape is passed url=0x0. This zero pointer
is gereated in rfc1738_escape_part by url.cstr_oneuse(), where url = String("").
rfc_escape_part("") is called from check_for_cached(). The "" value comes from
pkgsource.sites[n]->key. The site objects with a key of "" are created somewhere
in the yacc/lex stuff (of which I know nothing) based upon the mirror value
produced in IniParseFindVisitor::visitFile(). Changing < mirror = String (); >
to < mirror = String ("."); > on line 69 of IniParseFindVisitor.cc eliminates
the crash.
