This crash can occur if one of the fields that is used to generate the
Dublin Core metadata is not defined in your MARC frameworks - if
you're using MARC21, biblioitems.publicationyear is a candidate, as it
is referred to by oai.pl but is not defined in the default MARC21
frameworks.

I've opened bug 2659
(http://bugs.koha.org/cgi-bin/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=2659) and
submitted a patch for this.

Regards,

Galen
