NPE Crash in TransportBroker.java line 153

[spstreckfus]

Bug Summary

We're seeing the same bug from issue #1881 show up in our Crashlytics logs for 5.7.0 despite a fix for it being included. We did not encounter this bug in previous versions of SDL. As with the aforementioned issue, it appears that routerServiceMessenger is null somehow when getBinder() is called on line 153.

Reproduction Steps

No reproduction steps yet. This crash came from Crashlytics logs and was observed after we updated to SDL 5.7.0. So far we've been unable to replicate it ourselves.
