Ah, I guess you're seeing the crash in mem-break.c:

static int
z_type_supported (char z_type)
{
  return (z_type >= '0' && z_type <= '4'
	  && the_target->supports_z_point_type (z_type));
}

The function is a boolean, so assuming false if the
hook is NULL is fine:

  return (z_type >= '0' && z_type <= '4'
+	  && the_target->supports_z_point_type != NULL
	  && the_target->supports_z_point_type (z_type));
