I've had issues with mysql segving since 5.0.27 (not actually 5.0.27
tho). I submitted bugs upstream and got a fairly cold response of "it
works in my dev version" which is all well and good but there was a
serious crasher when using custom UDF aggregate functions. It was fixed
in the 5.0.4* versions but I'd recommend trying the 5.0.5* range as that
may very well just fix your bug.
