Thanks, that linter is finding errors.  I just started using CriticalStack
with Bro 2.5 so I can't comment on prior issues.

If the linter is working as expected then it appears the problem is with a
few URIs from PhishTank with odd URL encoding, maybe they are mistakenly
being interpreted as tabs during parsing or corrupting some internal state
within Bro.
