Maybe opening a new topic with "[print] crashes pd" would make it. the problem is exactly there: x_interface.c:28 buf[bufsize] = 0; remove or comment this line, then it won't crash anymore. I've no clue what this line stand for.

If you have no clue, then perhaps you are replacing a bug by another
bug. This looks like it's a bug regardless of the OS, although it
currently only shows up on some versions of Windows. What you
suggest seems to be a bug on any OS as well. Instead of removing the
line, try prepending it with :

buf = resizebytes(buf, bufsize+1, bufsize);

(I hope I didn't make any mistake there... but looks ok to me now).

Or maybe:

     binbuf_gettext(bb, &buf, &bufsize);
     strncat(buf, "\0", strlen(buf)-bufsize);
     x->x_sym = gensym(buf);
