Perhaps, but i guess not because there are only handled characters and
this filetype has 1 byte on most(all?) platforms.

Can you again try the current SVN version?
I fixed a small mistake that caused to ignore the real tab width and
used instead the width of 4. I don't know why I didn't see this earlier.
I guess your tab width was set to 2 and then Geany allocate memory for
replacing two bytes but infact it replaces four characters and this
cause the segfault. Should be fixed now, thanks for pointing it out.
