Looks like it may be related to the new suggestion stuff. I'm on 0.90.3, Java 7. Will be trying to reproduce on master shortly, but let me know if there's other stuff you need to debug.

I think I know what the problem is.... your segment might have no docs in that field... I will try to write a test and come up with a patch

s1monw added a commit that referenced this issue Aug 22, 2013
During segment merges FieldConsumers for all fields from the source
segments are created. Yet, if all documents that have a value in a
certain field  are deleted / pruned during the merge the FieldConsumer
will not be called at all causing the internally used FST Builder to
return `null` from it's `build()` method. This means we can't store
it and run potentially into a NPE. This commit adds handling for
this corner case both during merge and during suggest phase since
we also don't have a Lookup instance for this segments field.

Closes #3555
