simple ASN1 sequence - not quite understanding what goes wrong

I've got a very simple sequence of to integers that I am trying to convert to DER.

Bt I am getting an error or segfault in the final i2d step (lengt -1 for i2d_X9_62).

Any advice on what is going wrong here ?

With kind regards,

Dw.
