The m68k architecture had a trace event with "m68k_memory[0].addr >> 13"
in it. The parsing after the ']' and before the '.' checked the priority
of the '.' but because it does not handle '.' as an operator it returned a
negative number. But process_op() did not check for an error and continued
processing. This caused a segfault.

Return immediately if the operator is not handled by get_op_prio().
