[Info-mtools] segfault in 4.0.29 mcopy

[Natanael Copa]

Hi,

I am about to make a release candidate of alpine linux 3.14, but bumped into a 
segfault on 32 bit x86:

Here is the backtrace:

Type "apropos word" to search for commands related to "word"...
Reading symbols from /usr/bin/mcopy...
Reading symbols from /usr/lib/debug//usr/bin/mtools.debug...

warning: core file may not match specified executable file.

/tmp/mkimage.cEPbHl/image-aa545b554d9d4d9480eab6d0f1edd6ef8b932df4-x86'.

I was not able to find any public git repository to investigate the change 
history.
