### Description
# Bug: SIGSEGV when a directory contains more than two child directories
## Which fff frontend?
Neovim plugin (fff.nvim)
## has logs
FFF log attached.
## Description
I'm using fff.nvim on Termux with the prebuilt binary.
FFF works when a directory contains **≤2 child directories**, but consistently segfaults when a directory contains **>2 child directories**, regardless of nesting depth.
### Reproduction
Works:
```text
.
├── a
└── b
```
Crashes:
```text
.
├── a
├── b
└── c
```
Also works when nested:
```text
.
└── parent
├── a
└── b
```
But crashes at any depth when that directory has more than two child directories:
```text
.
└── parent
└── child
├── a
├── b
└── c
```
The crash occurs during the `zlob` filesystem walk:
```text
fff_search::walk::zlob: new
=== CRASH SIGSEGV (fff) ===
fff.nvim's rust extension hit a segfault and is about to die.
=== CRASH END SIGSEGV ===
```
### Environment
```text
Termux
aarch64 / arm64-v8a
fff.nvim using the prebuilt binary
```

Research direction
Start with the fff_search::walk::zlob filesystem-walk path and the attached FFF log, then reproduce the crash on Termux aarch64 using the directory trees described in the issue. Trace the walk when a directory has more than two child directories; done means the prebuilt or rebuilt binary completes those walks without a SIGSEGV at any nesting depth.
