Just a point of interest here (maybe). I'm also seeing segfaults, but 
I'm running ksh (see thread: "shells hang during script execution"). 
Anyway, I just noticed that the last stack address (which looks bogus), 
as well as the EBP register value, are the same in the stack traces that 
both Peter and I posted:

Stack trace:
Frame     Function  Args
0022E848  0022FBFC  (00484660, 00000000, 0009C05C, 0041E1F2)

Leading up to this are all pdksh functions:

40ab39 expand (after call to waitlast)
40a0fa evalstr
40cfa8 comexec
[...]

(in Peter's stack trace, these were all bash functions)

It would seem very coincidental for these two crashes not to be related 
somehow.

Peter, any chance you could maybe list the function names (in bash) that 
lead up the stack to this? Perhaps there's some common function that is 
causing this?

Thanks,
Paul
