[mythtv-users] Mythbackend Seg Faulting

Running v0.18 on FC3 with all of the RPMs from Axel's repository.  I've sent a
couple of emails over the last few days describing a crash, but now I've been
able to confirm that it's definitely a seg fault in the backend by sticking an
strace on the backend process.  Once again, the backend seg faulted immediately
after running its nightly mythfilldatabase job.  The database appears to be
updated fine and after restarting the backend the system status also reports a
successful completion of the filldatabase job.  I'm not sure if the strace
output will help anyone in identifying the problem, but I do have the strace
output and the verbose log output from the backend leading up to the segfault
and can send it to anyone who may be able to diagnose the issue.  I could
attempt to generate a core file next, if that would be useful, but I assume
there is no debug info available in the binaries of these packaged RPMs?

Help appreciated,

Derek
