Thanks to all those who offered suggestions on fixing the segfault in
mpeg2enc.  It *seems* to be solved, though the solution was not what I'd
have expected...

I assumed it was faulty RAM.  So I tried cleaning the contacts, moving the
RAM to a different slot, replacing it with a different DIMM, even tried
increasing the voltage and slowing the bus speed.  Nothing helped.

Then I upgraded my kernel from 2.4.20 to 2.4.21-pre4, and suddenly I was
able to encode *all three* of the problem videos.   I have no idea what
would be in kernel space (other than memory management) that would have
caused this, but it definitely work now where it didn't before.  Very
strange, but I'm just glad it works!
