Hi,

I found a crash in colcrt, (filter nroff output for CRT previewing) .
- The colcrt command is part of the util-linux package and is
available from Linux Kernel Archive
http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man1/colcrt.1.html
https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/util-linux/v2.27/

/opt/linuxtools/bin/colcrt --help

Usage:
 colcrt [options] [<file>...]
Filter nroff output for CRT previewing.
Options:
 -,  --no-underlining    suppress all underlining
 -2, --half-lines        print all half-lines
 -h, --help     display this help and exit
 -V, --version  output version information and exit
For more details see colcrt(1).


Details:

platform: Linux x86/x64
Version: colcrt from util-linux-2.27

colcrt from util-linux-2.27 and below crashes when the tool used in
the command line.

when running colcrt with the following file (attached), it crashes
because i believe when colcrt is called, it will dereferencing pointer
"cp". here is the backtrace from gdb:
