Summary:                    cmake: strlen(): cpack killed by SIGSEGV
Description: 
Fedora bug report: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1088321

Apparently std::string += NULL results in a segfault.  No checks are done in
cmArchiveWrite that archive_error_string() does not return NULL:

This is where this is happening (line 294 in 2.8.12.2):

    if(archive_write_data(this->Archive, buffer, nnext) != nnext_s)
      {
      this->Error = "archive_write_data: ";
      this->Error += archive_error_string(this->Archive);
      return false;
      }

We're running with libarchive 3.1.2
