The buffer pointer "line" is not initialized. This pointer is passed to
getline().

It can still work if the stack is zero-initialized, because getline() can
work with a NULL pointer as buffer.

But this is obviously broken. This bug shows up while running the test on a
riscv64 machine.

Fix it by properly initializing the pointer.
