Excellent work Fred and team!
Quick and dirty optimisation for string comparison - check if the prefixed length int are equal first? - you're probably already doing this but just thought i'd mention it.

Yup, tried alpha4 and same crash for Ucase(mystruct\myfilepath$).
I don't have time yet to dig into this, but if I comment out a resetstructure(mystruct, mystruct_info) I get a little further until another structured string access error involving mystruct\mystr$ + Space(10).
My fear is this breaks a LOT of my structured string use.

Which compiler do you use ? Does it crash with a small snippet ?

Yes, I always use the C backend.
I tried snippet but not extensive enough to match error. Ran out of time. Like I mentioned, I comment out reset structure and it got me past 1 error but onto another structured string error.
The common issue is working with structured strings: ucase(), space(), etc.
