Nobody's answered yet, so I'll give what little I can.

Bus errors are usually mathematical, not memory-based.  There are
exceptions, but that's the rule, by and large.

The line you're showing doesn't look like it should do anything odd.
I'm just trying to think of how the debugger works, where it doesn't
actually change values until after it processes the line displayed.  Are
any of those three fields numeric, by any chance?  Also, where does your
processing jump to after the end (ie., is this a called table?)?

Not much help, I know.  Just trying to find something that would cause that
particular error.
