Bug#664967: Segfaulting is caused by "copyObject" in version 0.12.1-3

I could narrow the reason of the segfault down.

The segfault occurs only if virtual-layout is set to "js" in 
/etc/mediatomb/config.xml. It does not occur if it is set to "disabled" or 
"builtin".

If virtual-layout is set to "js" the segfault in my setup occurs if and only 
if the "copyObject" function is used as described at 
http://mediatomb.cc/pages/scripting#id2809739.

As most of mediatomb's users can probably work around using copyObject, I 
downgraded this bug's severity to normal. Nevertheless, a segfault without a 
proper error message should be fixed and with the given information and the 
additional information, that the bug occurred with version 0.12.1-3 and 
probably not with version 0.12.1-2, it should be easily fixable.
