Calling `blocksci.Address.equiv` fails with `std::bad_alloc`

Reproduction Steps

import blocksci
chain = blocksci.Blockchain(config_path)
address = chain.address_from_string('1BG7Tq9N5L8PptCDUrH1u9Uv6hUZZKNVFG')
for equivalent_address in address.equiv().addresses:
    print(equivalent_address)

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

      4 for equivalent_address in address.equiv().addresses:

Nothing special about that address, per se. I have tried the same with other addresses. No matter the address, I get the same result, above.

Any thoughts?

Thanks for the report! It crashes my notebook, too. Will investigate when I find the time.

You're very welcome, Mr. Möser. Happy to hear I could help.

I am looking forward to seeing what you can find out! This is because the ability to detect equivalent addresses is rather useful for my analysis.

In the meantime, do you think there is any other syntax, function, etc. which provides an entry point to the same equivalence functionality but is not presently broken?

you may already know the solution, but just saying, having addresses.to_list() solves the problem, as mentioned in previous issues #273.
