I've checked in a change to back out the change to not copy data if FD_NOT_MALLOCED is set, and to add some offset/length checks before the copy is done.
I'm not sure how the crash happened (as I don't have any captures that produce it); hopefully the checks will prevent the crash *AND* will, in the error messages they print in those cases, indicate what checks really need to be done.
I will have a look at this again with the newly applied changes to reassemble.c
