The elementary operations on strings (strlen etc.) crash on (char*)1 too,
therefore one cannot blame 'printf' in particular in the string case.

The elementary operations on long doubles (==, +, isnanl, etc.) produce
no SIGSEGV; in the default settings they do not even produce a SIGFPE.
But 'printf' gives a SIGSEGV.
