[erlang-questions] dbg:tracer() aborts on binary match

Hi,
I'm writing a small parser for reading log lines. When it didn't do
what I expected I tried to use dbg:tracer() to see where it was going
wrong and it aborted. Here is the cut down minimal test case.
I'm expecting it to match and then try and call parse_headers with Hdr
added to the Hdrs list, but instead the VM aborts. Am I doing
something wrong/strange?
Many thanks, Jon.

parse_headers(<<"\\r\\n", T/binary>>, Hdr, Hdrs, Toks) ->
parse_headers(T, <<>>, [Hdr | Hdrs], Toks).

dbg:tracer(),
dbg:p(all, call),
dbg:tpl(?MODULE, []),
parse_headers(<<"\\r\\n]">>, <<"hdr1">>, [], []).
