The crash is actually in HTTPClient.cpp:

Got to get to work now, but the member _client in HTTPClient class is invalid and causing the boom. Need to trace where it's set/unset.

Problem by inspection is the example code is that it delete client; .... (implicit delete HTTPClient at end of loop)

You've destroyed the WiFiClientSecure, but HTTPClient is using it in its destructor, which is a no-no. Need to rethink the HTTPClient destructor to not touch _client or something equivalent.

The best solution to me looks like just clearing out _client and _tcpdeprecated in the HTTPClient library when HTTP.end() is called. No need for them to live past the .end() call.

@earlephilhower, the fix is not handling a Connection: Keep-Alive correctly. The Object should survive an end() to be reused for a next connection. Because of the fix the connection is always closed now. Keeping it open is really simple, but at destruction of the ESP8266HTTPClient the connection should be closed. This is what the object did before the fixes. But, this leads to the same issue: the destructor ~WiFiClientSecure is called before the ~ESP8266HTTPClient destructor, making it impossible to close the connection.
I think this should be solved but I do not know how. Any suggestions?
