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.
