address: fix stack overflow bug when printing error
Commit 24e673ae introduced a bug that cause the Error() function to
call itself recursively forever, causing a stack overflow. We explicitly
cast the error to its base type to avoid the recursion and add a small
test case that would've triggered the bug before.

btcutil

Build Status ISC License GoDoc

Package btcutil provides bitcoin-specific convenience functions and types. A comprehensive suite of tests is provided to ensure proper functionality. See test_coverage.txt for the gocov coverage report. Alternatively, if you are running a POSIX OS, you can run the cov_report.sh script for a real-time report.

This package was developed for btcd, an alternative full-node implementation of bitcoin which is under active development by Conformal. Although it was primarily written for btcd, this package has intentionally been designed so it can be used as a standalone package for any projects needing the functionality provided.
