Which version of PCRE are you using? That code does not agree with the
latest version of pcredemo, which reads as follows:


(void)pcre_fullinfo(                                                           
  re,                   /* the compiled pattern */                      
  NULL,                 /* no extra data - we didn't study the pattern */
  PCRE_INFO_NAMECOUNT,  /* number of named substrings */
  &namecount);          /* where to put the answer */


if (namecount <= 0) printf("No named substrings\n"); else                      
  {                                                                        
  unsigned char *tabptr;                                                   
  printf("Named substrings\n");                                           


/* Before we can access the substrings, we must extract the table for
translating names to numbers, and the size of each entry in the table. */

  (void)pcre_fullinfo(
    re,                       /* the compiled pattern */
    NULL,                     /* no extra data - we didn't study the pattern */
    PCRE_INFO_NAMETABLE,      /* address of the table */
    &name_table);             /* where to put the answer */


  (void)pcre_fullinfo(         
    re,                       /* the compiled pattern */
    NULL,                     /* no extra data - we didn't study the pattern */
    PCRE_INFO_NAMEENTRYSIZE,  /* size of each entry in the table */
    &name_entry_size);        /* where to put the answer */


/* Now we can scan the table and, for each entry, print the number, the name,
and the substring itself. */


In other words, the code you suggest is already present. And indeed,
your example does not crash when I test it.
