Hmm, that's a weird place to crash. I doubt that this has anything to do with 32-bit vs 64-bit. It looks like memory corruption. Perhaps an uninitialized variable or a use-after-free. I suggest trying to run your code with Asan (https://github.com/google/sanitizers/wiki/AddressSanitizer) and Msan (https://github.com/google/sanitizers/wiki/MemorySanitizer), both natively available on Ubuntu, they tend to be good at finding this kind of issues (we use them quite a bit when we're working on Mbed TLS, as well as in our CI).
Best regards,
