NullPointerException in Binarylog position comparing

[theikkila]

Maxwell crashes at async bootstrap phase with NullPointerException. I'm not able to provide the exact data for creating the same situation again but here is something. I hope that somebody with same issue could reproduce the error and fill information about this issue.

If this https://github.com/zendesk/maxwell/issues/443 is the same issue, then it is already fixed. :)
