(Horrible thought - maybe my RAM is failing.) If it happens consistently it's more likely a software problem and not a hardware problem. Try getting a backtrace and instructing dump out of SIGSEGVing glibc-test. The typical session would look like: $ gdb ./glibc-test (gdb) run (gdb) bt (gdb) disassemble -- Sergei
