3. 3. Remove all kerbals from the pod
4. 4. Click the New button, and don't bother to save

Result:

There is no workaround.  This is not critical, but annoying.

Hi @linuxgurugamer, try switching back to build mode before clicking "New", that should prevent the null ref from appearing.

Sal, I know that

and it's more of an annoyance than a real issue, 

It was driving me crazy while doing some debugging, until I realized it was KSP and not the mod I'm updating.  There were some unusual coding stuff in it, and I have been jumping on every null ref, because, up until this one, it was the mod.

So, I added it to the bug tracker.  I put it as normal, but I assume you can make it a low priority.  I just don't like seeing those messages when they are meaningless, I work very hard to get them out of my code.

Thanks LGG, I'll get the devs to take a look.
