If I understand it correctly, this is actually what happened here
in the first place -- json-c got released broken in version 0.13
under the circumstances exercised by sway, as Björn investigated
and subsequently fixed (thanks) -- see the referred bug.
Case solved, IMHO.

Either way, more (or any at all) automated tests on both
functionality
provider and consumer sides would definitely help.
The actual problem was in Sway, but was never discovered due to a bug
in all versions of json-c prior to v0.13.
See my comment on github about it:
