It doesn't make a different if I use -c or not. It always crashes:
./mpeg2fix -i /big/myth/record/Stromberg\ -\ 2005-11-06\,\ 10-19\
AM.mpg -o ./Stromberg.mpg -c "0 - 4065" -c "35067 - 47846" -c "55701 -
62226" -d 4

It crashes with all files I've tried so far. So it's not just this one.

Haven't tried this so far. I'm running the most current SVN compiled
with --enable-proc-opt.

No difference, still crashing. I'm using a 64bit CPU (but a 32bit OS-
Debian sid). Are you sometimes in #mythtv-users/#mythtv? It could be
easier to find the solution via IRC
