I do not know how reliably this function works, but it seems dangerous to me, at least. The function call strchr(sources, '\n'); ... continues searching until it finds '\n' or it reaches the '\0' terminator. In other words, 'sources' should be a null-terminated string. However, grab_file() just mmaps a file, so 'sources' is not terminated with null byte. If the file does not contain '\n' at all, strchr() will go beyond the mmap'ed memory. Instead, use read_text_file(), which loads the file content into a malloc'ed buffer, appending null-byte. Here we are interested only in the first line of *.mod files. Use get_line() helper to get the first line.
