At a guess, maybe another size()==0 situations as with:

https://urldefense.us/v3/__https://github.com/epics-base/pvDataCPP/issues/50__;!!G_uCfscf7eWS!dmvyzGYp-pOd44JRfW6GBwEFBUAzreA9-I41CGv8a-8ewFGyXTokRQOn_sT3Pn7kKx9rBtfUEqKcisXZMeKZT9EQq9w$

If so, a full stack trace should point at the offending code.
