1. As the posting guide advises, queries about packages should be
sent in the first instance
to the package author/maintainer before posting to the list.
2. As the posting guide also advises, a _minimal_ reproducible
example is desirable not one
that claims that somewhere in the middle of 1,000,000 bootstrap
replications something goes
wrong.
I'll try to take a look at this with valgrind, but I can't promise
any immediate resolution.
