Not saying this is the crash, but do not modify yytext; it is (or may
be) a pointer directly into the lexical analyzer's buffer, and not a
copy.

You might be confusing the flex scanner somehow by putting a null in
there.

You haven't shown any lexer code which sets up yylval.text and returns
the _STRING_ token.

The lex rules you have surrounding your STRINGER state don't return
anything.

[Good points.  In recent versoins of flex, yytext points into the
input buffer and chaning what it points to is asking for trouble.
If you need to change it, make a copy.
Also, there's no BEGIN(INITIAL) to reset the start states. -John]
