Research direction

No source file, test, or complete reproduction sequence is identified in the report. Start by obtaining the exact steps for the fork table operation on seekdb 1.2.0.0, then locate the failing direct-load or SSTable path; done means reproducing the error and adding a regression test that no longer returns the unexpected null pointer.
