> As I did in AVRO-984, I created a test program that creates an avro 
> value corresponding to the following schema: 
>   {"type":"array", "items": {"type": "array", "items": "long"}}
> The avro_value is then resolved using a resolved_reader, and an 
> attempt is made to read from the resolved_reader. This results in a
> segmentation fault on Linux.
> I believe this issue is similar to the issue in AVRO-984, in which
> nested arrays did not work because avro_resolved_array_writer_init()
> did not recursively call the init function on its children. In that
> case the initialization had to be deferred until a new item was
> appended to the array.
> I believe that avro_resolved_array_reader_init() should also
> recursively call the init function on its children, in a deferred
> manner as in AVRO-984, but I don't know how to implement this yet.
> I will attach a test program that shows the crash. 
> Thanks,
