[Vala] conversion segfault

Hello, fellow Valaists

I have the following example code which segfaults:

public int main(string[] argv){
    stdout.printf("hello world\n");
    uint64 test = 1;
    string x = "foobar"+(string)test;
    stdout.printf(x+"\n");
    return  0;
}

compiled with my valac 0.26.1, the result segfaults in line 4.
I can't imagine, this is intended behaviour.

Of course, the proper way to go for line 4 would be something like

    string x = "foobar%lld".printf(test);

Nevertheless i wonder, why the code segfaults, shouldn't there rather
be a type conversion error at compile time?

Sorry, i don't have a more recent 0.27 or 0.26.2 compiler at hand.


TIA, Grindhold
