Comment (by bonki):

 No worries :-)

 Adding breakpoints on lines 137/138 isn't really help unfortunately, the
 problem is that your breakpoint triggers every time the engine does a
 {{{seek}}} and it seems that the {{{_handle}}} isn't immediately invalid
 so the first call is not relevant/interesting.
 We are only interested in the call to {{{seek}}} when {{{_handle}}}
 actually is invalid. So you would have to step through all calls and find
 the one which triggers the assertion if you can't make the debugger you're
 using provide a backtrace when the assertion already has happened (weird).

 As an easy workaround you could remove the line {{{assert(_handle)}}}
 (L137) and add

 {{{
 if (!_handle)
     error("foo");
 }}}

 then recompile and add a breakpoint on the second line (now L138).
