Thanks for reporting. I gave it a quick go, and the issue seems to also be present in the current 'master'. The problem is a NULL-pointer dereferencing introduced in 8809703 ("http: factor out http error code handling"), where the code assume that slot->results still points to http_request::results. This assumption seems to be wrong. This seems to step around the issue, but I don't know if http_request::results should be set to NULL in the first place.
