backtrace of yelp crash

Yelp 3.22.0 crashes when help URI ends with page section name (after '#' sign). For example:

$ yelp help:gtk-doc-manual/commandline-interfaces#commandline-interfaces-configure

Backtrace is in the attachment.

Looks like this isn't the only problem though. The crash was easy to fix, I've just changed unsafe g_str_equal call to g_strcmp0 (which has a check for NULL strings). But now yelp ignores the specified page section, e.g. with the URI mentioned above it always shows the top of "commandline-interfaces" page.
