Yes, and no.  It now goes past the code with the typo.  However, it now
dumps core when it actually uses the trigger and the number of bytes in
matching lines is large.  gdb tells me that it fails in line 315, in the
logdata() function:

      memmove(triggerendpos, skipend, bytesleft);

If I push out the filesize limit to the max (1024k) then this line doesn't
get executed and no more segfault.  But I think I'm just being lucky that
the volume of matching lines is less than 100k, and if it reached 100k, I'd
be getting the segfault again.

So, still a problem, just a different one.  And this code is waaaay too
complicated for me to grok.
