the actual crash is a result of assuming libdir variable is non NULL,
but with changing from UT_clonestring to UT_strdup, that will be
the case except for lack of memory on startup [and we'll fail
miserably anyway]. Note: win32 defaults to a libdir of hard coded
homedir, which is "", if one can not be found and ut_clonestring
purposely does not clone such strings (please choose between them
wisely).
