Description:
There is an out of bounds read error in the function TclObjLookupVarEx. It can be seen by running the test http11.test with address sanitizer enabled. To reproduce:
./configure CFLAGS="-fsanitize=address -g"; make; make test

This is the code line where this happens:
    if (!parsed && (*(part1 + len1 - 1) == ')')) {
