The C standard specifies that passing null pointers to most standard
library functions results in undefined behavior (C99 7.1.4). This
applies to memcpy() even when the length is 0. insert_bytes() in
asn1_encode.c may be called with a null pointer from an empty
krb5_data or other counted value in a structure to be encoded. Do not
call memcpy() in this case.
