------- Comment #2 from Jonathan Matthew  2008-11-11 12:23 UTC -------
Line 252 of the version of gstspc.c that the user would have been using is:

  guchar *data = GST_BUFFER_DATA (spc->buf);

It seems like it could get in there without a buffer if the file was 0 bytes
long, or if the entire file looked like tag data (there's a tag demuxer there
of some kind).

$ touch emptyfile
$ gst-launch-0.10 filesrc location=emptyfile ! spcdec ! fakesink

crashes in the same way.
