xkbcomp in recallocarray(): recorded size 8 != 0

Running xkbcomp 1.4.7 on OpenBSD with sysctl vm.malloc_conf=S (to enable more consistency checks in malloc(3) and friends) to compile a german + bone keymap aborts with the xkbcomp in recallocarray(): recorded size 8 != 0 error.

To repeat run xkbcomp bone.xbk bone.xkm with the following bone.xkb file :

xkb_keymap {
        xkb_keycodes  { include "xfree86+aliases(qwertz)"       };
        xkb_types     { include "complete"      };
        xkb_compat    { include "complete+caps(caps_lock)+misc(assign_shift_left_action)+level5(level5_lock)"   };
        xkb_symbols   { include "pc+de(bone)+inet(pc105)+terminate(ctrl_alt_bksp)+compose(ralt)"        };
        xkb_geometry  { include "pc(pc105)"     };
};
