The bug is still present in both versions.

This should be straightforward for anyone interested in this bug to
reproduce without my help, you don't need any special packages installed
(the invalid profile was originally from the quake4 package, but the bug
can easily be reproduced without quake4). Steps:

- Have a real or virtual machine with apparmor (I used a qemu VM in
  virt-manager, running an image produced by autopkgtest-build-qemu)
- Download
  https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?att=1;bug=1038945;filename=bad.txt;msg=5
  and copy it onto the test machine
- Run as root: "apparmor_parser -Tr /path/to/bad.txt"
- Expected result: successfully loaded or gracefully rejected (either one
  would be OK)
- Actual result: a null pointer dereference similar to my initial report
