I have no experience with IDA plugins but I am competent with Python... but maybe there's an easy fix @devttys0  ?

This is on IDA 7 x86, looking at MIPS, MIPS-I version 1

@devttys0 I might just catch the TypeError and let it run for now... if you want to point me in the right direction I will try to fix it myself and PR

[mzpqnxow]

also FYI, this is on a busybox binary.. I caught the exception and the plugin (mostly) works and finishes cleanly (it recognizes that it didn't fixup everything well)
