By the way, what's with the bits in the stack trace like 0x0? - I haven't seen that kind of "pointer" before.

Minimal-ish repro:

func _() {
	var x *interface{}
	var y interface{}
	_ = x == y
}

We're simply missing a check for nil reason. Will send a fix.

@mvdan I'm not sure, those particular pointers should not be nil. I'm curious too.
