It helped, I think I found the problem. It's here:

void  iap_callback(struct iap_event_t *event, void *arg)
{
	AppContext* ctxt = ((AppData*)arg)->connection;

The application will crash if arg is NULL. And for some reason
libossoic sends arg as NULL in certain cases (I checked from sources).

To avoid this bug, it's better to not use arg parameter at all and
provide the context by some other means, for example in a modules's
private variable.

Sorry for a late answer, I was on a vacation.
