gnu awk bug

[Eiso AB]

please try the following minimal program

BEGIN{
    # dom="" # this removes the internal error
    a=fun(dom)
    print dom
}

function fun(str) {
    ns=split(str,ss)
}


for me this crashes
address@hidden> gawk -f test.awk
gawk: test.awk:3: fatal error: internal error
Abort


observed in GNU Awk 3.1.3
